GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

Comeaux Highschool is what you make of it. I would say my overall experience there was good. I have made plenty of friends along the way. Going into my senior year I appreciate all Comeaux has done for me even though it has not been ranked the highest school. I see the teachers trying to make Comeaux a better place!

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...
