LaPlace, La. -- School buses dot the parking lot of Lake Pontchartrain Elementary School on Highway 51, but there is no life on the campus. The building is clearly still gutted from floodwaters from Hurricane Isaac a year ago.
Up Airline Highway sits East St. John High School. With a lot of its campus still in disrepair because of storm damage only 9th graders are housed there; the school's 10th, 11th and 12th grade students continue to get their education at other schools.
