At WFMS, Noah Downey, Caden Bohannon, Cheyann Redmon, Ryan Johnson, Mrs. Margaret Anne Pruitt, and Brody Lasker work in a small group during social studies class.

In Mrs. Lauren Percy and Mrs. Katherine Tingle's class at Bains Elementary, Deborah Green and Tavaris London read and annotate an article about Louisiana's natural resources.
