Viewed before Hurricane Katrina as an institutional disaster, New Orleans'
public schools got a second shot at success as a result of the devastation. City
planners ran with the opportunity, deciding not just to rebuild schools, but to
implement a bold experiment in public schooling. A full 60% of the city's
reopened schools are now independently-run charter schools. On November 24 at
8:30 pm, NOW looks at the challenges, successes, and implications of one of
these schools, Lafayette Academy, through the tragedy-tested eyes of individual
students, faculty, and parents.
