  • Did the New Orleans School Reforms Increase Segregation?
    Objective, rigorous, and useful research to understand the post-Katrina POLICY BRIEF school reforms. EducationResearchAllianceNOLA.org April 4, 2017 DID THE NEW ORLEANS SCHOOL REFORMS INCREASE SEGREGATION? By Lindsay Bell Weixler, Nathan Barrett, and Douglas N. Harris, Tulane University Jennifer Jennings, New York University Overview In this study, we examine the effects of the post-Katrina school reforms on the segregation of students on a wide variety of dimensions: race, income, special education, English Language Learner status, and achievement. Research shows that all students benefit, socially or academically, from more integrated schools, making this an important issue to examine. We draw four main conclusions: • New Orleans schools were highly segregated prior to the city’s school Data Sources reforms, especially in terms of race and income, and remain segregated now. State Data: Anonymous student-level data from 2002-2014 Source: Louisiana Department of Education • We found little evidence that the New Orleans school reforms affected segregation for elementary school students. Most groups of high school National Data: School-level data from 2000-2014 Source: U.S. Department of Education Common Core of Data students that we examined were affected, with some groups seeing an increase in segregation and others a decrease. • There were no consistent trends in racial segregation. Some groups became more segregated, others less so. • Among high school students, segregation has increased for low-income students and English Language Learners, but decreased for special education students as well as by achievement. To our knowledge, ours is the first study to examine the effect of school choice on the segregation of English Language Learners, special education students, and low- and high-achieving students.

  • Riverfront Expressway Cancellation, Shuddering at the New Orleans That Could Have Been
    Geographies of New Orleans Fifty Years After Riverfront Expressway Cancellation, Shuddering at the New Orleans That Could Have Been Richard Campanella Geographer, Tulane School of Architecture [email protected] Published in the New Orleans Picayune-Advocate, August 12, 2019, page 1. Fifty years ago this summer, reports from Washington D.C. reached New Orleans that John Volpe, secretary of the Department of Transportation under President Richard Nixon, had cancelled the Riverfront Expressway—the high-speed, elevated interstate slated for the French Quarter. The stunning news, about a wildly controversy plan that had divided the community for years, was met with elation by the city’s growing preservationist movement, and head-shaking disappointment by local leaders in both the public and private sectors. A half-century on, the cancellation and the original proposal invite speculation —part mental exercise, part cautionary tale—about what greater New Orleans might look like today had the Riverfront Expressway gone forward. And it very nearly did: conventional wisdom at the time saw the new infrastructure as an inevitable step toward progress, following the lead of many other waterfront cities, including New York, San Francisco, and Seattle. But first, a recap on how the New Orleans plan got to Volpe’s desk. Rendering from Robert Moses' Arterial Plan for New Orleans, 1946, page 11, courtesy collection of R. Campanella The initial concept for the Riverfront Expressway emerged from a post-World War II effort among state and city leaders to modernize New Orleans’ antiquated regional transportation system. Toward that end, the state Department of Highways hired the famous—many would say infamous—New York master planner Robert Moses, who along with Andrews & Clark Consulting Engineers, released in 1946 his Arterial Plan for New Orleans.

  • NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Lee Circle Before Lee Long before Lee, the circular park linking the upriver and downriver sections of New Orleans was called the Place du Tivoli. Tivoli is a name that invariably conjures up images of verdant and picturesque gardens, its origin to be found in an historic town in the Lazio region of central Italy, founded centuries before Rome. According to Cato the Elder, Catillus founded a town in the Sabine hills to the east of Rome named Tibur (the name of which evolved into Tivoli) in honor of one of his three sons, Tiburtus. The town’s name probably shares a common root with the river Tiber. Historical vestiges of settlement in the vicinity date back to the 13th century BC. Temple of Vesta, Tivoli, Italy Tivoli is home to the Villa d’Este, commissioned by the son of Lucrezia Borgia, whose Italian Renaissance gardens are the main reason for Tivoli’s renown. It was there that this author visited in his youth, sampling his first Campari, and dined that evening at the centuries-old Ristorante Sibilla. Napoleon and other notables made this idyllic restaurant a culinary destination, as well. Built in the early 1700s beside the circular Roman Temple of Vesta and the Sanctuary of the Sybil, its terrazza garden has a breathtaking view over the deep gorge of the Aniene River, with the sounds of the waterfall in the background. It has been called “the most romantic place in Italy.” The grandeur of Tivoli’s landscape, with its evocations of ancient glory, also made it a major destination for foreign visitors on their 19th century “Grand Tour.” The Tiburtine Sybil (a kind of oracle) is famous for having announced to the Emperor Augustus the coming of Jesus.
