Your Job:
A school Teacher At Langston Hughes Middle School in the Garden Disctrict
In New Orleans teachers are paid $5,000 more than the average school teacher
salary. See some of John Alfred’s comments on Education in New Orleans.
Your Neighborhood:
Living Uptown right off of Magazine Street, your life will be a mixture of classic
southern charm and local art scene.
Your Saturday night:
From four star to dive bar, life in New Orleans is always interesting. If you’re in
the mood to dress up, head to Commander’s Palace for their famous turtle soup.
If your mood doesn’t call for a cocktail dress, music at the Maple Leaf can start
any weekend off right.
Places you volunteer:
With your sparkling personality, you’ll fit right in at the Social Aid & Pleasure
club. Joining this upstart parade organization will give you a chance to make a
downtown child’s day while uniting diverse communities.
