Metairie Park Country Day School

• Private School
• Metairie, LA
• PK, K-12
• 31

Alum: A fantastic New Orleans school experience that prepares students for college, grad school and the world. I can't imagine a better place in New Orleans to learn, develop and grow. The teachers and staff are first rate and exemplify what a community can be when everyone works together with shared values. I'm well into my 30s now and still deeply connected to the friendships formed here. There's something for everyone here despite the smaller school feel. You can take many challenging courses and electives, the most expansive arts curriculum in the region and beautiful, constantly improving facilities. The cherry on top is the school lunch experience - you have to experience it to believe it. It's a true community experience. I miss those red beans!

St. Martin's Episcopal School

• Private School
• Metairie, LA
• PK, K-12
• 40

Parent: Best investment you could make! For our family, a private school education involves sacrifice, and is a huge investment, but we have found that St. Martin's is the best investment we could make. Our daughter thrives in this wonderful school with a tight-knit community. The teachers are incredible and work side-by-side with the students to help them learn in a way that is truly deep. Students are prepared and excel in some of the best colleges, but more than that, they are prepared to make an impact on their communities.

Louise S. McGehee School

• Private School
• New Orleans, LA
• PK, K-12
• 41

Parent: McGehee is amazing and the only place we could imagine sending our daughter in New Orleans. The girls who are at McGehee are extraordinary confident, smart, kind, and ready to tackle the world. In lower school the girls study everything from Shakespeare (at 7 my daughter could read elementary versions of Hamlet, As You Like It, Twelfth Night, Macbeth, etc.), engineering, Louisiana history, basic economics, French, dance, soccer, early algebra, and so much more. The teachers and administration at McGehee are the best we have ever seen. We are so delighted that we found McGehee and proud to be part of the McGehee family.

Academy of the Sacred Heart

• Private School
• New Orleans, LA
• PK, K-12
• 40

Alum: Overall, I really like Sacred Heart. I like what it stands for. I like the small, Catholic school environment. I went for thirteen years. As a high school student, I have to admit, my life sucked. The administration, which they currently have, is some of the worst people in charge. When you tell the school about your problems, they definitely don't care. They talk down to you and treat you like it is your fault. They don't understand the amount of stress they put on students and they simply do not care about students.

Audubon Charter School

• Orleans Parish Public Schools, LA
• PK, K-8
• 2

Middle School Student: Great school, friendly kids. If you've ever seen one of those movies where there are stereotypes about bullies, that doesn't exist here. I've been going to Audubon for about 7 years, and I'm an 8th grader. The relationship between the students and the teachers is great, and there are only a few teachers that could improve on their organizational skills, but it's nothing that couldn't be solved by an email or so. They handle students with mental issues very well. (there is a girl with down syndrome in my class) she has lots of people who support her. The lunch food could be better, but I believe that that is the same with a lot of schools. I'm honestly fine with it. All in all, it's an awesome school, great for any child.

Northlake Christian School

• Private School
• Covington, LA
• PK, K-12
• 22

Alum: Northlake is a special place. The teachers invest in their students academically and spiritually. Programs such as the soccer team, powerlifting team, and basketball have been repeatedly recognized in state championships and district championships. There are a wide variety of clubs and ways to get involved for students from all walks of life. College preparedness is crucial to the administration and it is evident due to the college counselors and help lended. I would highly recommend Northlake Christian to anyone who is looking for a school that prioritizes spiritual growth as well as social and academic excellence.

Ursuline Academy of New Orleans

• Private School
• New Orleans, LA
• PK, K-12
• 83

Senior: I have been at Ursuline New Orleans since I was in first grade and now I am a senior. I have seen many changes through the years with their facilities, leadership positions, and more. When I started at Ursuline there was no softball field, Early Childhood Center, or Wellness Center. What I appreciate most about Ursuline is their history. There isn’t a day that goes by without hearing the words 1727, St. Angela, St. Ursula, and Our Lady of Prompt Succor. The root of Ursuline’s students is “Serviam” which means “I will serve”, another term we hear every day. It teaches us to help others not only in our own community, but everywhere in the world. That is why we send a group of students and faculty to Belize every year to help a family build a home where they can’t afford one. Because Ursuline is a smaller community you form bonds with your teachers that you can’t find anywhere else. In the classroom teachers are open to any questions and want to see you succeed.

Christ Episcopal School

• Private School
• Covington, LA
• PK, K-12
• 14

Senior: I like the welcoming familial environment CES provides. Where this school has many flaws, the overall enforced atmosphere is amiable. CES cares about a students success and is more than willing to help their students overcome roadblocks. The CES teachers are passionate for what they teach as well as for their students achievements. They form a unique bond with each student and go above and beyond for their classes.
However, this school could offer more elective choices. They lack a good, wide range selection of everything but the core subjects. CES doesn’t provide choices for students who have varying interests.

Senior: I’ve gone to this school for 5 years and this is my Senior year, and I have enjoyed my time there. It’s been a pleasure meeting teachers and students that I will never forget, in all my years there. I’ve had the best teachers in every single subject there’s no doubt about it.
