the Leah Chase is currently open and district run for now, but it's not a traditional public school. It doesn't have boundaries for enrollment.
I admit I do not understand the school options down your way.
However, you have already stated MOST of these charters are open enrollment.
These parents aren’t claiming their child cannot get an education, they’re salty that this fancy pants exclusive school denied him a seat he was never owed to begin with.
The child would NOT get the supports he needs in that environment and every effort to support him would necessarily take away from the students hand selected FOR that environment.
The parents are look-at-me jerks.

What am I exhibiting a sense of entitlement about? Why are you assigning that position to me?

That's like keeping paraplegics out of the olympics.

In full transparency, I did NOT put Willow on my kids' one apps. I don't agree with selective enrollment schools, so I don't utilize them. I don't care what other parents choose for their kids, though. I'm not on a rampage to get selective-enrollment schools shut down.

I stand down, Cubbies.
Thought you were rooting for this prick parent.

I agree that this places an exceptional burden on communities.
There's really no way around this without being discriminatory, though. And if discrimination is allowed based on a disability... it just opens Pandora's Box.

Yeah, trying to insert a kid like this into the most selective magnet type school in the Parish, seems like about the stupidest way possible to try to force this issue.
And I actually recognize it's an issue, knowing people who have literally moved out of the Parish specifically because of it.

what accommodations are going to be made for the hard-to-educate students that no charter or private school wants?
I understand its difficult but sometimes we have to face reality. Just because you were dealt a shitty hand doesn't mean everyone else has to fold their cards.

I wonder why he did not sue the Orleans Parish School Board. That is the responsible party. Either bad lawyering or he had some reason that is not clear and took a chance.

I’d be interested in hearing more of this aspect if you’re willing to share.

Without knowing anything about this attorney, I’d almost wager that he supports “ThE LeFt”, and his supporters belong to “ThE LeFt”.

Good. The plaintiffs dad is an annoying attention whore. sorry your mentally disabled son can’t bring a high achieving school to a screeching halt to accommodate just him.
Posted on 9/17/26 at 1:22 pm to 4cubbies
Doesn't sound much different than a magnet school? Are we going to get rid of them so that no one is capable of higher achievement because some people can't reach that level?

Just being curious about stupid shite like this, I looked up the case and can probably answer my own question.
The father did not sure OPSB because his son attends the one school run by OPSB and is "thriving": "O.E. is currently attending NOLA-PS’s one direct-run school and is “thriving” there; though, his mother expressed that “there’s been a lot of speculation about whether the school will be in existence after this year,” which puts O.E.’s family in “limbo” regarding O.E.’s future schooling.

Parents of kids with IEPs? Curious when this happened. There were so many special education abuses in the years right after the storm.
