1. I-55 in Louisiana “The second you cross the Mississippi state line into Louisiana heading south, it’s like driving on a washboard. You can close your eyes and know. I had a cup full of soda one day, and the road literally rattled it right out of the drink holder and all over the floor of my truck. God help you if you think you’re going to ...See More

Louisiannie There are a few independent or district charter schools - but you really have to check them out. The state-run (RSD) charters are a joke.

I feel so sorry for the kids. Teachers who teach there should know better. Listen to the experiences of others.

Smart of you to ask before you jumped into something you would regret!

Max Johnson Thanks Marcello. I got a name and phone number for someone at the DOE today and called. I left a message and am waiting on a call back now. I also talked to someone at the Resource Center today and just flat out asked them the same question. She said she wasn't sure, but as long as it wasn't a sex crime or anything involving the selling of drugs, s...See More

Caddo Budget Cut

by Hopeful Teacher

May 26, 2010

I am relocating to Shreveport and I am concerned after hearing about the budget cut and the hiring freeze. In anybody's opinion, what's the chance that the freeze is lifted and the parish starts to fill the open positions listed on their website?

Thanks!

May 30, 2010

OK, I just read about this on yahoo answers, but is it true that in Louisiana, there isn't a state law that expressly prohibits student-teacher romantic relationships?
