Blake Pontchartrain: Kenner High School birthed several Jefferson Parish politicians

I came across a yearbook for the old Kenner High School. Where was it? Did it change names or is it no longer standing?. The former school was located at the edge of what is now Kenner’s Rivertown district, at 1610 Rev. Richard Wilson Drive, formerly Third Street. It opened as a school for kindergarten through 12th grades but was best known as Kenner High School. The property was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.

Baton Rouge School Board Rematch Pits Stay-the-Course Steward Against Reformer Jackson

University View Academy — Reported Jackson Civics Teaching Location. Four years after falling short against Shashonnie Steward, veteran educator Tebbe Jackson is back on the ballot for the East Baton Rouge Parish School Board's District 4 seat — but this time there's no runoff to catch a late surge. Steward, the board's current president, is running on what she calls a stay-the-course platform built around rising test scores, a new employee pay raise and a $42 million bond for high school improvements. Jackson, a civics teacher at University View Academy, says Steward's agenda looks less like her own vision and more like an extension of outgoing superintendent Lamont Cole's.
