High School might be ax’d

The high school might be joining the ranks with Redemptorist.

I didn't realize that they had lost so many students.

quote:

Over the past decade, Runnels School has steadily lost students, decreasing from more than 800 students overall to about 550 currently. The high school portion of the school has decreased to fewer than 200 students.

I don't think so. They do have a basketball team.

The school is also well known in Baton Rouge for its strong commitment to the arts.

So it was a school with a punch of white kids who felt bad about their "white privilege"?

Apparently they need green privilege

It's definitely a school for artsy kids. I know a few people that have their kids at Runnels. A lot of people choose it because it has no religious affiliation.

I don't think many are going to ok with a 40+% tuition increase though.

At one point they did. If I am not mistaking, they play baseball as a 1A school.

I thought all the artsy kids went to Dunham, the protestants in the area to Parkview, the Catholics to St. Michaels, and the Richers to Episcopal

They were very good (in their classification) under Tookie Johnson.

Nationwide private schools in trouble... shrinking demographic..... fewer students going private every year.

Well the richer Catholics go to Catholic High/St Joes.

This just made me think...

Is St. Michaels & Catholic High the only Catholic HS in BR?
