a petition also needs to be circulated for tearing down Cabrini Church to make way for Holy Cross to build their school.

Sen. Landrieu,
I believe you understand the importance education plays in our city's rebuilding. Are you aware that children are now in Gentilly, but not in school? I know 2 kids whose parents haven't been able to get them in any school. The closest they've gotten to enrollment is a waiting list. Teachers working in NO have told me that charter schools don't wish to help because funding for this year was based on their Oct. enrollment numbers. FOR THE SAKE OF US ALL, MORE SCHOOLS MUST OPEN.

Our people are waiting for schools to bring their children back. Prioritize your approach to nurture recovery. Eliminate delays now.

Without schools we have no neighborhoods, no city. What a tragic loss this has been to our whole country.

I contend that this is a chance to do things different. Instead of schools, let's use learning centers with project based and student centered learning models. Use technology and eliminate as much paper and pencil and text books. Give families stipends for staying in school.

Our home is near Capdeau School, currently run by the state via the UNO Department of Education. While this school appears to be doing a good job, it does not really serve our neighborhood because it opened last year to city-wide enrollment, is operting at capacity, and has few (if any) openings for local students.

We need good, functioning schools if we are to encourage our neighbors to return!

As we endeavor to return to our badly damaged area, the people of this neighborhood have to face living not only with local government who does very little to have negligent property owners take care of their property but also school and other government owned buildings that sit in deplorable condition. Please demolish and/or remediate these buildings.

I suggest that we make the John Kennedy Senior High School site into a K-12 school. I am very concerned about returning to New Orleans because I have a Special Needs child who has no school in New Orleans to attend. He has Cerebral Palsy, and therefore the school needs to be handicapped accessible.
How do you expect people to return when there are no schools for their children?

I live directly across the street from an elementary school, Langston Hughes, which has not opened. The residents on my street, Trafalgar St. are looking forward to this school reopening. I was a pleasure. Pleast consider reopening this facility as it did indeed add to our neighborhood.

Schools are the focal points of any neighborhood. Schools attract families which attracts business and expedite rebuilding efforts. It is outrageous that in the Lakeview and Gentilly neighborhoods close to Lake Pontchartrain there are no public elementary schools. There are families living in these areas who have to travel to send there children to school. Please expedite the efforts to rebuild schools in Gentilly and Lakeview.

Anyone who is in a position of authority concerning education in Louisiana who advocates bringing schools back once justified by a returning population, is not qualified to have anything to do with our children. All but idiots know schools are set up first, then the children will come, with their parents behind them.

We need action. Accountability is watching inactivity. Polls will speak in our silence. New Orleans continues to rot from its heart. Louisiana will never be the way it was without New Orleans and its port. Help us and we will all in turn help you when you ask for our support.

Senator Landrieu,
The process is flawed. Please help the residents of Gentilly restore their lives. We need to hear childrens voices in our neighborhoods. Without schools this is impossible. Schools will bring families back to the most impacted areas. Families will bring commercial developers to restore business. Schools must come first for home and commercial revitalization! This is a shameful situation. I suggest we use a similar model as the U.S uses overseas to rebuild war torn cities. HELP
