...or lack thereof.
Quick history lesson: Lusher is supposed to be one of the best schools in the city. Parents love it, the students love it. Historically, Lusher drew about half of their students from a geographic district (gif map here, kml map here), and about half tested in. The racial makeup of the school mirrored the racial makeup of New Orleans.
Enter Katrina and the Federal Flood. Scott Cowen, President of Tulane, rightfully thought that to bring Tulane employees back, they would need the incentive of a good school for their children. So he got Tulane to blackmail donate a vast amount of money to Lusher.
In return, all Tulane employees can send their kids to Lusher, regardless of test scores, race, or where they live.
Problem: now, too many Tulane employees are taking advantage of Cowen's blackmail the Tulane Lusher benefit.
What does this mean? Too few slots, too many kids that want to go there.
What happens now?
The Tulane parents still can get their kids in there, no problem.
The geographic district pays the price. And God help you if you have to test in.
The rules may change, but this year, 7, count 'em, 7 slots are available for grades 1-5. For kindergarten, it isn't as big of a deal since they turn over every year, but once again, too many kids want to go. Tulane kids get in first, period. Then siblings of already enrolled students go, then there is a lottery for the in-district students.
If you're out of district, you're out of luck.
Several parents who live in-district had in the past talked of a class-action suit against Lusher/Tulane/Cowen if the geographic district went away. Suddenly, thanks to Cowen, that house is worth 20% less. I don't know if this will be revived now, but if the geographic district goes away for good, expect the lawyers to get involved.
Once again, as with Newcomb, as with Tulane Engineering, Scott Cowen takes a silk purse and turns it into sows' ears.
