You have no idea WTF you’re talking about..




Nah. Like the other guy who responded said, there are still pockets of Metairie that are like that, but it's not anywhere near the all encompassing whole of such that it was 30 or so years ago. It's the aging of that wave that has a lot to do with it, but there are other factors.

Yeah Metairie has changed since the times of the 70’s and 80’s, but saying it’s “done” when it comes to having young middle class families is just stupid..

New Orleans is getting SJW whiter (meaning no kids) while JP is getting darker (blacks from NOLA being priced out and Hispanic population exploding). Disastrous combination for Catholic schools in the area.

Haynes and Thomas Jefferson are both advance studies high schools



They're probably much more selective though right? It seems that they basically take almost every kid at the kindergarten level if you ask me. No way all these people on FB have genius kids

Seems like other schools, in nicer areas, like St Ann, St Clement of Rome, Holy Name of Jesus, St Elizabeth, etc) are doing better, although they are down as well. St Elizabeth for example has about 350 kids, but I remember 25-30 years ago that was closer to 700.


St. Elizabeth is doing very well now. They are building a new 60,000-square foot facility by Divine Mercy church.
