The ripples from Katrina reached my front door step this morning when two Katrina kids — evacuees from New Orleans who just moved into our apartment complex, Arbor Village – showed up at the spot where I wait with Parker for bus 125, which takes him to Bryant Elementary at 8:15 every morning. A very noticeable event from my strictly parochial point of view since it amounted to a 166% increase in the number of 5-year-olds at the bus stop, from 3 to 5.
Kudos to Arbor Village for providing housing for three Katrina families.
Update: Ovell is in Parker’s class!
