Welp it's offically official that my kid is going to private school in the future.



Meh .. if you live in the area of Shenandoah .. just make sure your kid at least gets into the Great Scholars program at Woodlawn Middle and Woodlawn High .. They'll actually get a far better education than they will at most schools outside of Catholic High and Episcopal .. You're paying taxes to fund the program anyway .. You might as well use it .. Public school at least prepares your kid for the reality of the world they are going to have to live in the rest of their adult lives ..

Oops. Guess I should have signed it. Then they would have been 70 short.

Most St. George signers dont even know that exists. And those are great programs, as good as Catholic and Episcopal. Much better than other private schools(and Ascension and Livingston) for sure.

Our kids went through great scholars at Woodlawn middle then gifted and/or talented at BRMHS and McKinley. No regrets whatsoever. Our youngest is heading out of state for college in the fall but the others all were successful at LSU. They were all well-prepared for college...no need for private schools. Warren Drake seems to have a solid vision for the future of the entire system...might diminish the incentive to try the new city approach in two years.
