Abstract	In this article the author expresses her views concerning the pre- and post-Hurricane Katrina public educational trend in New Orleans. She observes that the segregation that existed before Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, due in part to migration to the suburbs and in part to the proliferation of private and parochial schools, has divided students along lines of race, gender, class, and religion. Now that most schools in New Orleans have been obliterated, the author has fears about the future of public schools. She fears that the trend towards charter schools will further erode the ideal of all children learning together under one roof with equal chances for success. The author hopes that reopened schools will create communities that accept differences of all kinds. (ERIC).
