I saw someone post about the rates in Louisiana. 12-18 for local travel. Not in New Orleans. We finally were able to raise our local travel to $8 from the previous $6 that was paid for who knows how long.
The rates here are ridiculous. The LHSAA created a new association called the LHSOA (Louisiana High School Officials Association). The LHSOA's sole responsibility is to act on behalf of all officials in the state. I'm hoping that they can get their stuff together and take care of this situation sooner than later.
In the majority of the state the only contracts in place are contracts that show that this school will use this association. The officials in those places have no obligation to work any games. You work as an independent contractor.
Also, for those of you who do not know, there are three levels of officials in Louisiana. Registered (70% on test), Approved (80% on test) and Certified (90% on test). There are amount of years restrictions on all 3 but i forget off the top of my head.

Time will tell and we shall see.
