More than 10,300
students applied for scholarships after Gov. Bobby Jindal signed the statewide
expansion into law earlier this year.
The program was
originally created in 2008 for students from low-income families that attended
failing schools in Orleans Parish. The
legislature passed the statewide expansion of the program with strong
bipartisan support earlier this year.
The expanded program allowed students from low-income families that
attended schools rated “C,’ “D,” or “F” to attend the school of their parents’
choice.
