Push come to shove, there is not much of a difference in quality of private school education in OP vs surrounding parishes.
But the public schools that should be good in Jefferson or St Bernard, just aren’t compared to private options in New Orleans
St Bernard especially is great if you can’t afford better options, but if you can you choose those

Haynes is pretty damn good probably better academically than anyone not named Jesuit. Also don’t get why we are comparing private to public in this scenario.

The sad part is a lot of people don’t care because their football team is shitty
We’re comparing private to public because if people currently in Jefferson and St Bernard and Plaquemines left NOLA schools due to the crime there, where would they go?

The private schools in that area. Dude there are several JP residents that send their kids to OP private schools by choice.

Been that way ever since there was a Metairie… Rummel and Shaw could both hold a lot more students than they currently have. I guess Country Day and St Martins are okay if you’re rich AF. Anyone else may as well not even exist
Chalmette and Belle Chasse I would say are decent public schools, but they don’t have private competition in their parishes

Ok though Rummel was bursting at the seems in the 90s and early 2000s. Has OP always been in the current state that it is in as it pertains to crime and leadership?

If you’re a millennial, yeah

I’m not depriving my kid of a Jesuit / BM education and experience so I can protest Orleans Parish. Both schools have been educating young men long before and after Mayor Teedy.
I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with the private schools in other places, but it would be asinine of me to keep my son from having those options.

There is nothing in NOLA that I want to see or do. I grew up in Metairie and loved going to the quarter in high school and college. I have a ton of great memories from there but I will not go back.

That's as much of an issue in New Orleans as it is in BR. The whole state as a matter of fact. Hell, Central and Zachary are good schools compared to the rest of the state, not to mention areas surrounding BR. Ascension,Livingston,West Feliciana...

My first breaking point was when I was working in New Orleans in the 80s and got sick of everywhere either being run or controlled by the mob.
Man, what would I give for the mob presence to resurface

Of course. I certainly wasn’t trying to assert otherwise. Even the parishes with decent school systems are only marginally so by national standards.

I guess though this is still somewhat Covid related.

At one Catholic elementary school in a well to do area of Jefferson Parish where most of the girls nearly all went to MCA and Dominican in previous years, there was a complete shift to Archbishop Chapelle. Their open house was done without Covid restrictions and the kids are not wearing masks now, they didn't pander to the Woke summer of 2020, and you don't have to worry about the crime in New Orleans.
The boys however did not see a comparable shift to Rummel.

Great things are happening at Chapelle; new principal Connie is killing it. Much different than 25 years ago.
