High School of the Week- Acadiana HS in Lafayette, Louisiana




Our High School of the Week is Acadiana High School in Lafayette, La., where Martha 'Nikki' Broussard is principal. The school of some 2,000 students, nicknamed the Wreckin' Rams, was (according to Wikipedia) an early political battleground for the debate over whethe evolution should taught in the classroom in the late 1980s. Louisana's current Republican governor Bobby Jindal has supported initiatives to teach creationism in the state's classrooms, which is also a point of contention for those who agree with the findings of Darwinism.
