Caddo Parish Parks and Recreation had the great honor and privilege to partner with the Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office and the Caddo Parish District Attorney’s Office to speak with the local students at Huntington High School on Thursday. The goal was to raise situational awareness and provide real-life experiences and insights to help these students make better life choices.
Caddo Sheriff’s Captain Latienda Pierre spoke about the impact of cell phones, devices, and recording incidents at school, emphasizing how these actions can have criminal consequences.
Deputy Malaysia Simon discussed the consequences of poor choices, showing how those decisions can affect not just you, but everyone involved.
The Caddo Parish District Attorney’s Office ADA Kodie Smith shared the hard facts about his job and the importance of making proactive decisions to avoid future encounters leading to less favorable circumstances.
The students were engaged throughout the entire discussion, learning about the valuable resources available in the community year-round. This visit also provided a great opportunity to show how involved our organizations are in the community and how much we value the lives and education of our youth.
