Where we try and strive to do our best*
I grew up on Hackberry and rode my bike there from Kindergarten through 2nd grade.
Baton Rouge would have good schools if we could only have neighborhood schools instead of busing kids all over the place to meet quotas.

Thanks for the correction.
One of my best friends lived on Hackberry.

There is no forced busing and technically speaking attendance zones for elementary schools are fairly tight. If everyone who lives in the JT attendance zone sent their elementary aged children there it would be heavily majority white school. You could apply this same logic too half the schools south of Florida blvd. The school board is only filling seats because the neighborhood kids go to private or magnet schools. If you are in that zone your kid has priority seating.
Give your school board rep a call and demand they tighten up school attendance zones even further to reflect your community. Don’t just sit behind a keyboard and hope for something.
