LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - The IRS says the Beauregard Parish School Board owes more than $1 million in unpaid filings and interest, dating to 2017.

The School Board disputes the IRS’s allegations and is hiring a CPA to help resolve the matter.

The School Board held a special-called meeting Thursday evening after receiving a demand letter from the IRS for $1,043,712.88

KPLC filed a public records request for a copy of the letter, which outlines the amount the IRS says the School Board owes.

School Board member Garrett Greene posted about the meeting, which only had one item on the agenda - an executive session “to discuss strategic planning concerning a federal tax issue.”

The school board said the IRS claims are administrative in nature and involve potential civil penalties for alleged filing delays. The allegations do not affect employee pay, payroll, or taxes.
