Gulf state school boards associations programs to aid schools

The state school boards associations of Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana have established several programs to assist schools affected by Hurricane Katrina.

In Mississippi, donations can be made to that state's hurricane school relief fund. In addition, the association has set up an adopt-a-school program allowing schools to adopt or be adopted.

Alabama has also established an adopt-a-school program, and has devoted an area of the association's Web site to recovery information for school districts.

A trust fund has been created by the Louisiana association to accept financial donations for the schools in need of assistance. Contributions can be made by sending an e-mail here.

Kudos to the Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama state schools board associations for their quick efforts to aid in the recovery and rebuilding of the region's schools.
