Incompetent administration. There was a math teacher in the previous year that felt it wasn't important to teach math at all. I have no idea how she went an entire year despite the parents voicing their concerns endlessly. Now kids are perpetually behind. Instead of firing the teacher the administration just moved her elsewhere. Things seem to be better this year. My kids love their 3rd and 4th grade teachers . Everything else about this school is mostly wonderful even during a pandemic.

At the Episcopal School of Acadiana, students are encouraged at every step to be the best version of themselves they can be. No matter if they are an athlete, honors student, theatre kid or academic support student, the faculty at ESA teaches their student to be responsible for their own academics and willing to try something new.

Many of these reviews are blaming the school for depression and social awkwardness. I agree that the workload can be stressful but when I think "I wish I had a gun so that I could shoot myself in the brain and not have to deal with anything anymore" I don't blame the school. Your teachers are there to teach you about math not how to live. Blame your parents and if you're a parent then just admit that you dropped the ball on this one. In regards to talk that the honor code encourages kids to judge each other, that's going to happen no matter what. There's really no need to worry about your child being judged for unsavory activities anyways, drugs and vaping is rampant. If you enroll your child then do beware that the school will try to milk you dry, but don't worry, it's so they can renovate the school. They've been saying that for years now and there raising tuition so if they don't get there goal in the next five years then I think it's fair to assume there skimming off the top.

This is truly a school like no other. One of the best things regarding this school is the academic support program. They have a building where students can go to obtain most of their accommodations (extra time, quiet space, scribe, ect.) Students can also have a period where instead of an extracurri...

The school has been wonderful for my children. It is so much more than a school. It teaches children how to be accountable for their actions and take responsibility for their education.

This school is a very dangerous place for the young mind...Keep your children away from the ESA environment!

This school is extremely antagonistic and discriminatory to students with disabilities. The administration has repeatedly bullied my child and refused to offer any special education assistance. They essentially did not treat my child like a human, and they repeatedly disrespected my family. I would...
