We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

going to ovey comeaux high school you do realize a lot more than what you would think you would going there. A lot of people say how bad the school is how bad the kids are, but it really isn't that the kids strive so much and it definitely starts to show now that we are in a school. The cleanness is definitely one of my pet peeves about the school. Definitely one of the worst sides, but everything else is really good about the school.

My overall experience was changed as the years went on. My Freshman & Sophomore year was the best relating to the resources we had, the teachers, the administrators. My Senior year I had the utmost awful experience, we didn't have anything that we had in previous years, we lost cords for graduation. I just wish we would have the resources that we had before.

I am a graduate of Comeaux High. Like any school, your ability to extract knowledge and experience is directly correlated to the effort you put in. The advanced courses prepared me for college. I received my undergraduate degree in business and a masters in business administration from ULL after att...
