Student Spotlights

Hear from UL Lafayette educational leadership students and alumni about cohorts, remote classes, and leading schools after graduation.

Our students are working educators. They learn alongside their cohort, apply what they learn in their own schools, and go on to lead classrooms, schools, districts, and colleges.

Where Our Graduates Lead

  • Marcy Paulk Bonnette, M.Ed. 2019: Assistant principal at Lafargue Elementary. She chose UL Lafayette because the program came to her district through a remote cohort.
  • Dr. Donald Thornton Jr., M.Ed. and Ed.D.: Former principal of Lafayette High School and Westminster Christian Academy, now Regional Compliance Manager at Charter Schools USA. He also teaches Education Law and Ethics at UL Lafayette.
