My experience since I've been here has been nothing but enlightening. The multitude of cultures and heritages let me catch a fresh breath from the typical learning environment. The teachers here find a way to keep an interesting, open minded and attentive class no matter where I go. The sports scene may not be that good but no faculty cares more about their students than the International High school of New Orleans

It is very diverse and has a plethora of classes to choose from. They have multiple languages and they even have Arabic and Vietnamese which is not commonly seen in Louisiana. I am currently attending as I write this review and I do not regret switching here for my last senior year. This school is very accepting of self-expression and being one's true self and there is certainly the least amount of bullying I have ever seen in a high school. There are many clubs such as martial arts and dnd. WE are safe with security cameras and security walking the halls.

International highschool is one of the best schools I have been to. International Highschool of New Orleans is welcoming one the fist day and makes the school a second home.

Incredibly bad vibes, poor administrators (they show up after school starts), terrible discipline. Unorganized and no library even.

Diversity and excellence is key in this high school. The school celebrates its diversity in the five different languages it offers, in the cultural festivals it holds, in recognition of differences through clubs and activities, and other planned events. The International Baccalaureate program is an...

I have 2 sons that graduated from IHSNO. Both have high ACT scores and are attending college on scholarships. The IB program is an excellent jump start for students wishing to enter a diverse and global market. The school is culturally diverse and the location is in the center of New Orleans Busines...
