Yesterday (Thursday) was our first full day in NOLA and we spent most of it on Tulane’s campus. We had a group of excellent presenters including one surprise, a former Tulane honors student! Chris Meyer, Special Advisor to the Superintendent Louisiana Department of Education, spoke to us about the development of charter schools in New Orleans. Not a topic without controversy, but very well presented and it is exciting to see so much energy being put into primary education in Louisiana.

Dean Brady,
What are your opinions on charter schools. I am really curious to hear your thoughts whenever you get the time.
