In 2017, Thompson introduced legislation to name the Louisiana School for Math, Science and the Arts in Natchitoches in honor of the late state Representative Jimmy D. Long, who was among those instrumental in establishment of the institution in his role as chairman of the House Education Committee. After strong support in the state Senate, the renaming legislation passed the House Education Committee despite some opposition from alumni who object in part to the school having such a lengthy name.
