BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Warren Drake and East Baton Rouge Parish School Board leaders say they have worked out a deal to allow the former Zachary superintendent to take the helm of the second-largest public school system in Louisiana.

The Advocate reports (http://bit.ly/1IRb6hN) Drake's proposed employment contract is on Thursday's agenda for a School Board meeting.

Drake's contract would start July 1, the day after Superintendent Bernard Taylor's contract expires. Drake would remain superintendent through June 30, 2018.
