Dominican HS in Uptown NOLA has only 87 8th graders enrolled...

there's also controversy over Supreme Court justice Amy Coney Barrett, who went there, with debate over how the school should be honoring her.

---

Yeah, a Catholic school shouldn't be honoring a SCOTUS judge that exhibits Catholic values

I don’t think it has to do with Amy Coney Barret. I have heard that parents are afraid to send their daughters to a dangerous part of town. Seems as though Dominican has been providing security to walk students and teachers up and from their vehicles.

Mt Carmel & Chappell 8th grades are most likely full.

Are 8th grades a big thing in NOLA? Most BR high schools don’t have them or at least don’t have large ones.

For the longest time my mind was blown that holy cross was where it was for so long and still attracted pretty wealthy and preppy students.

It’s not in a real bad area, but they have had some shite go down near the school in the last few years.

Isn't Dominican on St Charles near Broadway?

Not it’s close to Claiborne.
You must be thinking of Sacred Heart

It’s one thing to send boys to a school in the hood. It’s an entirely different thing to send girls to a similar area.

That's crazy. They'll be 4A with those numbers in 3 years if that holds up.

For Catholic high schools, yes.
