Isidore Newman is a small private school in New Orleans, so with that comes issues with the imbalance between those who are affluent and those who are not. The school does a pretty good job of trying to encourage diversity and inclusion but it is still a work in progress. As a female of color, I have had both good and bad experiences with this but overall I feel safe and cared for in this environment.
Newman is a college prep school and does a great job with that goal, however, there is not much to say about mental health services, diversity, or sexual education.
Graduated from Newman, and have children there. One is class of 2020 and another class of 2023. I have watched the school grow and improve in every way over 4 decades. A special place that prepares students for life and higher education.
