I have attended Ellender for two years now going on three. It's a good school. The teachers push…read moreyou to do your best. I'm in all honors classes and the teachers are great. The only problem is the messy kids,which is why you need to have good, trust-worthy friends and a high self-esteem have smart friends and know the right people. The school's not bad but it has potential to do better and I guess this year was better then the others because we had more rewards then every other student from past years the principal believes that we have the potential to do better and we have.

I worked harder here than I ever have in college. And that includes my current studies in nursing…read moreschool, though they're very nearly tied in beating me senseless with paperwork. The kids were fantastic. Anyone with the brains to get in can and will fit in here. The faculty is great. The administration was such a problem that I can't give more than three stars. In fact, the administration is what I attribute my pure hatred for high school. Unfortunately there's a school board that oversees the principal. So even though there are huge problems with the current (not personal experience with this one, just from having spoken to several members of the faculty) and previous (good riddance!) principal, it's next to impossible to convince the board that there needs to be a change. If the principal is allowed to pick on teachers he or she doesn't like, it affects how the teachers treat each other and thus how the teachers treat the students. This is a very liberal school. I wish the dress code were less strict. The point of going to Franklin was supposed to be having the ability to be yourself, and to learn who you are. Why can't kids in high school shave a mo-hawk or dye their hair blue if they want to?

They do such a great job of making school a fun and engaging environment. The elementary school is a wonderful environment with low student-teacher ratios, a beautiful blend of the traditional classroom with art and music built into the day. The middle school is wonderful. Small classes, personal attention, a great mix of fun, academics, and art. I have seen incredible personal growth for all three of my daughters. I am so thankful my girls get to attend Ursuline and join their incredible rich history of educating catholic young women.

It has an open layout where every turn seems to open onto another shaded courtyard or stretch of green lawn, making it feel much larger than it actually is. The entire campus has a classic Southern look that feels both elegant and welcoming. It's nice to wander around the campus before continuing to take a stroll through Audobon park. Genuinely a beautiful public space.

The first thing I noticed about Loyola University was how different it felt from the surrounding…read morecity. The walkways are lined with enormous live oaks, and the buildings give the campus a distinctly collegiate feel without losing its New Orleans character. The architecture's Gothic-inspired details make the campus feel older than it is, and it pairs surprisingly well with the subtropical landscape. Between the courtyards, brick paths, and shaded lawns, there always seemed to be another quiet corner to wander into. A really pleasant place to stroll around.

This school is a brilliant jewel because people really care about each other and it shows in academic performance and day-to-day interactions. Kudos!

We just moved to New Orleans from Salt Lake City and I was immediately drawn to this school. The…read moregirls are happy, and the staff and parents are all so proud to be a part of the school. My daughter is THRIVING here and is so excited to come to school that she runs down the street, through the gates, down the hall, and immediately to her classroom. Joining this school was like joining a Hogwarts house - we didn't join a school, we joined a vibrant community. Many of my daughters classmates have had all their relatives go to school here, the ties run deep! They have so many ways to get involved, socialize, and fun events that it feels like I joined a club or sorority. I run into parents from my daughters class outside of school often and I no longer feel like a stranger to New Orleans, but a welcomed member of my new community. Being a part of this school has been my favorite thing about New Orleans so far. Also, I love the outfits, the logo, and the breathtakingly beautiful grounds. The best schools in Salt Lake City (and the competing schools in the area) can't hold a candle to this place. Worth every penny. P.S. Of the Hogwarts Houses, this school would be Gryffindor. ;)
