Internet & Phone Service Outage

Internet and phone service are currently unavailable at Monterey High School, Vidalia Lower Elementary, Concordia Parish Academy, and all Ferriday schools due to a fiber line that has been cut in the area.

The internet service provider is aware of the issue, and repair crews are en route to restore service as quickly as possible.

We appreciate your patience and understanding while repairs are being made. We will provide updates as they become available.
