Bootheville-Venice Elementary School is oepn. It was an elementary-middle school-high school before Katrina. The building and most of its contents survived intact. then FEMA and other officials would not let anyone enter the building to get the school supplies out. So, the books and desks and stuff just set there and mildewed. The classrooms are pretty bare inside..a chalkboard, a few desks....and little else.
The teachers and children are very positive and upbeat despite everything that has happened. They are truly inspirations to the rest of us.
