Very historical day for CAHS we poured libation at Congo square just after it received its official name.

Had a great time on this historical day that CONGO SQUARE was officially named so!! We played sang & danced to Congo Square to Treme thru the French Quarter!!

Today was a wonderful day . I was able to to see the impact on the people from playing and i was able to speak to some of the people who was deeply effected

Today was pretty awesome. I learned a huge lesson. A lesson to be greatful of what is given to you in life.

Today I learned to appreciate what I have in life after wlaking through Treme. I'm having thoughts of becoming a hippie and I adored my bonding with Jessie!

today was an awesome experience. I enjoyed walking through congo square and dancing. i also tried some different food that was so good.

todays experience cant be described with words. it was great. we were all blessed to be able to experience a day in the city of new orleans surrounded by love..

Woke up this morning to these beautiful notes. Words from quiet transformed souls, touched by the spirit of a place left barren. Emerging n alive with hope.

The students competed against others who lost homes and loved ones in the Horrific Tonado distruction in Alabama. we expressed that we would be praying for them

The greatest lessons taught by teachers and learned by students will NEVER be taught in a classroom.
