For Many, Education Is Another Storm Victim
For hundreds of children at Renaissance Village, this is their lost year. After fleeing Hurricane Katrina, they have landed in a vast gravel moonscape of government trailers, lacking even a playground.
At Renaissance Village, a FEMA trailer park in Baker, La., some children spent the last school day playing.
All day they play video games, ride bikes or sit at a picnic table, watching men play horseshoes. They are not in school.
