Patrick Sims, Senior Pol­i­cy Ana­lyst at the Cowen Insti­tute at Tulane, will present their 2015 State of Pub­lic Edu­ca­tion in New Orleans (SPENO) report. This will be fol­lowed by a brief pan­el dis­cus­sion with two of New Orleans’ fore­most pub­lic edu­ca­tion lead­ers and robust audi­ence Q&A. For those less famil­iar with the New Orleans sys­tem, this will pro­vide a use­ful intro­duc­tion. Some ques­tions that will be addressed are: How does the New Orleans’ school sys­tem work? How has that changed over time? What are the great­est chal­lenges fac­ing the sys­tem of schools? What will hap­pen over the next ten years?
