Bobby Jindal's education reform package. Claiborne Christian School, Northeast Baptist School, Our Lady of Fatima, Learning Tech/Quest School and St. Frederick High School have begun accepting applications for the 2012-13 academic year from students at low-performing schools. The Louisiana Scholarship Program allows students who have been attending C, D, or F-rated schools to attend non-public schools at state expense as long as their family income does not exceed 250 percent of the federal poverty level.
