Newman has gotten significantly better over the last decade with handling diversity issues and creating a more genuine and inclusive environment. That was definitely an issue — and probably their biggest, but I’d say it has improved drastically. This improvement makes Newman an all around great school and the best in New Orleans
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.
