My grandmother is fond of telling me that it's not what you know but who you know…read more It is truer nowhere than in school. Even is Christian Brothers School didn't give me a first rate classical young man's education the value of the school can easily be measured in my classmates. It's odd to look back at middle school and realize I was networking even then. I sat next to the sons of prominent business men and local politicians, even the grandson of the LA Attorney General. But it wasn't all blue blood and starched white collar material. I myself come from a modest household and gained entry and success on the merit of my grades. CBS may have a large portion of "upper class" students but the student body is as a whole quite eclectic. Even if it's "who you know" CBS does a stellar job with "what you know". CBS prepares young men not just for high school but for success. Yes, a lot of the lesson plans seem old but they are tried and true methods. A strong focus on English grammar, reading, math, sciences, even penmanship created a top notch education that carried me through a stellar high school and stays with me even as a professional in the workplace. Should I have a son one day, I hope that he can benefit from an education as good as my own and the foundation for that started with Christian Brothers School.

They are impressive and have been invited to Disney World a few times to perform.

This is a good school for a number of reasons, however, I will only name a few: -the level of discipline rendered -the spiritual background provided -the smaller class sizes I know plenty of great people that have attended and graduated from this great institution. The Sisters & Staff are awesome in their love and compassion expressed for the children; to be an educator takes a special kind of person. Thank God for teachers. I love that the uniform is the same and the pattern is quite distinctive. I've not seen any other school wear that pattern and I know you can't purchase it on the open market. You have to order the uniforms byway of the school. Located on busy Chef Menteur Highway, this institution is a staple in the community; and are active in said community. I've seen numerous fundraising activities they have hosted; what a blessing to the community-at-large. Most recently, they have opened their doors to pre-K & they're just the cutest little things ever.

So far My son and I are loving this school. I'm going to start off with the Cons because I honestly…read moredon't have many. The neighborhood that the school is in has terrible roads. Most of the houses in the immediate area are French Style New Orleans homes so it's really cute. Just be aware that if you drive a couple blocks down in the wrong direction the roads will start tearing apart and scenery will change. I've told a few people my son will be attending this school and most ppl applaud the news. I hear great feedback from other parents of a mix of different races and I've only heard good things about them. During orientation they stressed about how they are a school who welcomes families of different cultures and students who have differences. And I feel like they mean it. During orientation one of the teachers was giving a story about how much they care about their students and how racism is around us so much and the students who attend this school will learn how to accept one another and learn and understand the different cultures of different races and learn to love one another. The lady was in tears at the end of her speech and I just knew she meant every word of it. We did apply for a scholarship to attend the school, we applied rather early and we got in. They have an online system to pay for lunch, field trips, donations etc.. which I think is very organized. They do have a bus service for New Orleans parish residence, for Jefferson Parish, parents have to pay for bus service. Inside the school is very clean, everything looks fairly new, colorful, bright, and organized. I'm really picky so yes I looked around. The equipment in the cafeteria also looked fairly new and clean. They stress the importance of music, art, and physical education. Which most schools do not. Also they have a speech therapist at the school. Some people tried to discourage me from bringing my son to a language school when he has some catching up to do with his speech. It's amazing to see that he's not the only child who struggles with speech and they have professionals there to help regardless if he's learning one language or two. They also have after school programs like home work help if they stay in after school care, science club, and Soccer Shots. My son just started attending, we find out who our teacher is on Monday but I'm really excited, some say it may be challenging but we are ready for it.

They are very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and have before-care and after-care at no additional cost. Spanish lessons start at age 1. The rooms are clean, they have structured days, and an excellent child-to-teacher ratio. Safe sleep environment for infants. Cons: I know from a former teacher that they don't pay their teachers a living wage, which must affect morale and how they show up to work. The teachers all seemed burnt out and scared. None of them talked to us, nor did it seem the administration wanted them to talk to us. Also heard from previous staff they have in the past (not sure about currently) been discriminatory towards non-Catholic students, i.e. not providing them with needed occupational or speech therapy. (Illegal) The days are structured, but are they too structured? These are babies. They start wearing uniforms at age 1, which I thought was hilarious. So do they need 20 uniforms for a week for how many changes of clothes they go through? No diversity among the preschool population. Almost exclusively white. The food included for ages 2 and up was catered and all came in styrofoam containers. The thought of this kind of waste and environmental damage is unfathomable. Ultimately, not the place for our child.
