It's very competitive. You have to have the right credentials, make the right donations, have a family connection, have an athletic kid, come from the right middle schools, ect.


yeah, none of this. STM is a good Catholic school, nothing more.

Exactly. You can go to public school k-8, and still get in to STM.

I does help if your kid is in the feeder schools (Cathedral Carmel, Our Lady of Fatima, St. Pius) and doing well. Some kids from these schools do opt to go to Teurlings, Laf High Gifted program, or (less likely) Comeaux High.

There are 1,100 kids at STM, and the vast majority are not in athletics.

Donations (monetary and in-kind) aren't necessary either, but I doubt they would refuse them. That's how shite gets done in a private school. As opposed to the silliness that has become public school board meetings, fraught with name calling, bickering, grand-standing, resistance to change, and secret investigations.
