"While we are flushing you may possibly experience lower pressure than normal and could have a tint in the water. If you use any water in your home during the posted flush times you may draw this water into your plumbing system. Toilets and hot water heaters have tanks that can keep this water around long after we are done. If you continue to have discoloration or cloudy water after the posted flush has ended, please let the cold water tap in your kitchen run for approximately 3-5 minutes. If the cold water in the kitchen is clear and the hot water and toilets still have a tint, they may require a brief flush. If any of these issues continue after the posted flush times, please call us at 225-925-2011."

Today, our Central Community School System teachers became students as they participated in a “Stop the Bleed” training led by the Louisiana Firefighters Foundation. This hands-on class equipped our educators with life-saving skills to control severe bleeding in emergency situations—crucial knowledge that could make all the difference before first responders arrive.
Thank you to Central Fire Department for coordinating this training.
Thanks to the City of Central, each teacher now has their own Stop the Bleed kit, ensuring they’re prepared to act quickly and confidently in a crisis. We’re grateful for this investment in safety and readiness across our schools.
