  • 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.

  • Final Staff Report
    CITY PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF NEW ORLEANS MITCHELL J. LANDRIEU ROBERT D. RIVERS MAYOR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR LESLIE T. ALLEY DEPUTY DIRECTOR City Planning Commission Staff Report Executive Summary Summary of Uptown and Carrollton Local Historic District Proposals: The Historic Preservation Study Committee Report of April 2016, recommended the creation of the Uptown Local Historic District with boundaries to include the area generally bounded by the Mississippi River, Lowerline Street, South Claiborne Avenue and Louisiana Avenue, and the creation of the Carrollton Local Historic District with boundaries to include the area generally bounded by Lowerline Street, the Mississippi River, the Jefferson Parish line, Earhart Boulevard, Vendome Place, Nashville Avenue and South Claiborne Avenue. These partial control districts would give the Historic District Landmarks Commission (HDLC) jurisdiction over demolition. Additionally, it would give the HDLC full control jurisdiction over all architectural elements visible from the public right-of-way for properties along Saint Charles Avenue between Jena Street and South Carrollton Avenue, and over properties along South Carrollton Avenue between the Mississippi River and Earhart Boulevard. Recommendation: The City Planning Commission staff recommends approval of the Carrollton and Uptown Local Historic Districts as proposed by the Study Committee. Consideration of the Study Committee Report: City Planning Commission Public Hearing: The CPC holds a public hearing at which the report and recommendation of the Study Committee are presented and the public is afforded an opportunity to consider them and comment.
