My name is Nick Touchet and I am pleased to announce my candidacy for the newly added District I seat on the Vermilion Parish School Board.
I was born and raised and a lifelong resident of my district. I am married to Alaina Hebert Touchet from Erath, and we have four children, Kennedi (23), John Nick (18), Meg (16) and Ana Kate (10). Our children attend or have attended public schools including Meaux Elementary, North Vermilion Middle School and North Vermilion High School.

Stefanski and Stacy Conrad, opioid prevention outreach coordinator for the office of Public Health Region 4, spoke at Wednesday’s Eunice Rotary Club meeting.
Their focus was on fentanyl, a synthetic drug causing an increasing number of deaths.
