A Jewish school reopened in New Orleans. The Torah Academy reopened earlier this month, welcoming 28 students from nursery school through eighth grade — slightly more than half the students it had before Hurricane Katrina, the New York Jewish Week reported. Another Jewish school in New Orleans, the New Orleans Jewish Day School, delayed its reopening from January to August because too many students are attending schools in other cities this year.
