La. officials say federal money lacks teacher pay

Louisiana officials on Saturday said a $2.6 billion aid package for schools affected by Hurricane Katrina does not appear to include salaries for displaced teachers, one of the state's primary educational requests.

Officials of the restructuring firm that runs the New Orleans school system have said they are out of money to pay teachers for any periods after Katrina. Cecil Picard, the state superintendent of public instruction, said this week he would seek $2.4 billion for teacher salaries and benefits alone.

But state officials said the $2.6 billion package from the U.S.
Department of Education will largely go to functioning school districts that have received displaced students.

Louisiana has 186,000 displaced students from kindergarten through the 12th grade and 25,000 displaced school employees. Already, other districts in the state have enrolled more than 20,000 displaced children.
