All Louisiana public and Catholic K-12 schools are closed until mid-April. They are going to try to do online classes, but, according to the paper, 71% of public school children come from economically disadvantaged families, and I'm sure many of them don't have internet at home.

Officials are trying to come up with a way to distribute lunches to students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunches. For some students, their free lunch is the only solid meal they get all day.
