Plantation Elementary Renames As Corporal Michael Middlebrook Elementary

Corporal Michael Paul Middlebrook was a member of the Lafayette Police Department for nine years, having previously served as a military policeman in the U. S. Army. Corporal Middlebrook was shot and killed while serving the community of Lafayette, as he was responding to a shooting at a local store. Plantation Elementary has been re-named as a memorial to his service.

At the meeting, Lafayette Police Chief Toby Aguillard said, “I could think of no greater monument for Michael, than to name a school after him.”

According to LPSS, the name change is to take place immediately. Money is already being raised to help place new signage in front of the now Corporal Michael Middlebrook Elementary School.
