St. Stephen School is a private institution catering to the needs of children from pre-kindergarten through seventh grade. Founded over 150 years ago, the school has a reputation for maintaining a low teacher-student ratio. St. Stephen boasts a teacher-student ratio of 1:15, whereas the Louisiana state average is 1:31. This lowered ratio enables teachers at the school to provide each pupil with more one-on-one attention, developing meaningful bonds that help children to grow and develop academically. The school is coed, with 217 students currently enrolled. There are scholarships available to offset the cost of tuition as the school believes money should not be an obstacle to education.
St. Stephen’s core values include making sure each student develops a positive self-image, maximizes their potential, and respects the ethnic and cultural makeup of their fellow students. These values prepare the children for high school and beyond, just as the school’s extracurricular activities do. Each student must maintain a C average academically and an A average in Conduct to participate in these events, which include club sports such as basketball, volleyball, and cheerleading. St. Stephen is also a meeting place for local scouting groups, and the school is happy to provide more information to interested parents and students.

The teachers chance too fequently....from year to year and sometimes even within the year(wont come back after the Christmas break). Where's the tradition? When I graduated from 8th grade, my same K-7 teachers where still teaching there. The teachers aren't staying & the schools are trying to keep them.

I had both of my boys at St Stephen Catholic School. When we had to move to Texas, it was hard for us to say goodbye to the school! It is a safe and family-oriented environment. The staff was committed to my kids. The principal, Mrs. Rosie Kendrick, engages with the students; she is always willing t...

St. Stephens has been a God send for my children. My kids have, unfortunately, been at a few schools. However, no their school has reached my kids or met their individual needs like St. Stephen. At other schools, teachers didn't really connect with my kids or take the time to discover their individu...

The principal leadership is poor! The principle needs to improve or be removed from her position. She is very slow to respond to parents request to meet and she is disrespectfully to parents in closed door meetings. In a meeting I had with the principal, she did not want to listen to issues presente...
