Riverdale Academy (Louisiana)
Riverdale Academy is a private school in East Point, Louisiana, United States. Located outside Coushatta, Riverdale is the only private K-12 school in Red River Parish. The main building of Riverdale Academy was built in the 1920s as East Point School, a public K-8 school. In response to a desegregation order resulting from a 1966 court case (U.S. v. Red River Parish School Board, C.A. No. 12169, W.D. La., filed July, 1966) and population loss, numerous schools in Red River Parish had been consolidated or closed by 1970. East Point School was sold for $501.50 on January 8, 1970, to Florane House Movers, which then turned over the property to a parents group to form a new segregation academy. The school opened in the fall of 1970 as a segregation academy. Its mascot is the '' Raging Rebels'' . - Riverdale Academy.

Segregation Academy
Segregation academies are private schools in the Southern United States that were founded in the mid-20th century by white parents to avoid having their children attend desegregated public schools. They were founded between 1954, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that segregated public schools were unconstitutional, and 1976, when the court ruled similarly about private schools. While many of these schools still existmost with low percentages of minority students even todaythey may not legally discriminate against students or prospective students based on any considerations of religion, race or ethnicity that serve to exclude non-white students. The laws that permitted their racially-discriminatory operation, including government subsidies and tax exemption, were invalidated by U.S. Supreme Court decisions. After ''Runyon v. McCrary'' (1976), all of these private schools were forced to accept African-American students. As a result, segregation academies changed their admission ...
