re: Heritage Academy in Metairie

Back in the day when I was in high school, I worked with a girl at a supermarket who went to school there. She came into work right before Mardi Gras with a list of nights she couldn’t work. She explained that she was short a credit and couldn’t graduate unless she walked in the Metairie parades.
So this girl got academic credits from walking in parades and was allowed to graduate.
