I realize you’re looking for places in or near Louisiana, but the really good boarding schools in the US are in New England if you can get him/her in and if you can afford it.

Subiaco

I went there and have a 14 year old there now. Always looking for another car pooler!

In BR, they used to send bad-arse kids to the Marine Institute.

Send him to a Military Institution. Would do him some good. Just don't send him to A&M.

Watch The Program miniseries on Netflix before you decide on a facility for your son. There are so many bad ones. I was sent to a "teen help" girls school several states away at 14, and that hellish experience has had a lifelong effect on my relationship with my parents and siblings.

St. Stanislaus just drug tested all of their boarders and not sure how many they have; maybe 75-100??? All but 2 failed and that’s factual.

Saint Stanislaus is an excellent school. Highly recommended.

I went to boarding school as a freshman in HS. I went to a shitty boarding school in Tennessee, and absolutely hated it as it was more of a day school with a boarding component. I transferred to Deerfield in my sophomore year and I had an awesome experience.

Just being honest, boarding schools in the south sort of suck. There are good boarding schools here, but they are few and far between. My daughter went to Baylor and had an incredible experience, but even at Baylor, the day/boarding student ratio is way out whack.

IMHO, if you’re sending your kid to boarding school for disciplinary reasons, you’re doing it wrong.

What has he done to go this route? Drugs, anger, not GAF?

I went to Fork Union in Va. Kids from 6th up to PG. I highly recommend it for good young men who need a little more structure.
