List of parishes in Louisiana
The U.S. state of Louisiana is divided into 64 parishes (French: "paroisses") in the same manner that 48 other states of the United States are divided into counties, and Alaska is divided into boroughs.

Act 35 applied almost exclusively to Orleans Parish. Only 14 of Louisiana's 64 school districts had more than 30 schools, and almost none of them had the requisite number of AU schools or percentage of students in AU school to meet the new definition of a "failing" school district.
