In addition to the Metairie Senior Citizens Center, five public and private schools and UNO's international exchange student program are participating.



The local students are from George Cox, Warren Easton and McDonough ‥15 elementary schools, the Learning Unlimited Christian Academy, and the Science and Math Charter Academy.
