Teacher Ronald Pradel plans to take his students to Baton Rouge next month with the help of his "One Class at a Time " award.

"Most of my students have never really even left their neighborhood," says Pradel.

 Pradel says most of his students have some form of autism.

"Several of them have never had a really good experience at a restaurant and so they don't really get the history and of Louisiana and how food plays such a part in the history, " says Pradel. 

The Caddo Middle and Career Technology School teacher plans to take his students to the state capitol so they can learn about the history of Louisiana.
