A New School Year - on Paris Avenue

Paris Avenue in New Orleans

The 2008-2009 school year has begun and the students attend classes in portable classrooms.
Construction has begun on several of the new buildings and hopefully students will be in permanent facilities by the school year 2009-2110.
The setting, minus the Mississippi River, is very similar to the original campus, flooded in Katrina, but the live oaks give the same ambiance as the old campus. And, the voices and laughter of boys give it the togetherness that it needs.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

When all is said and done, it is the people that the kids will remember about school.
