Located at 3019 Canal St. in the Mid-City neighborhood of New Orleans, Warren Easton Charter High School serves ninth through 12th grade students. The school was founded as a public school in the 1800s and named after a state supervisor of education. Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath forced the school to close in 2005. It reopened in 2006 as a charter high school. Actress Sandra Bullock adopted Warren Easton Charter High School in 2007 and has served as a school donor and benefactor. The school states its mission is to make sure every student reaches his or her full potential by providing academic challenges at all grade levels in a productive and positive environment. Warren Easton Charter School strives to create the next generation of global citizens right here in New Orleans and holds a firm belief that every student should leave school with high self-esteem, advanced problem-solving skills, and a working knowledge and curiosity of the greater world. The New Orleans Parish School Board gave the school an “A” grade and it earns high marks for athletics among Louisiana schools. Students may participate in basketball, volleyball, track, baseball, softball and flag football. The school provides programs like Jump Start, which helps students master practical skills before leaving high school. Jump Start concentrations include carpentry, pre-nursing and STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) courses.

I love my school but there's room for improvement. My school is known for its football team. In my city, if you have a good football team, people are attracted to your school. Ultimately, it's not the best for academics and it's not the schools fault, it's the charter systems.

My school overall is a good school . Personally my experience wasn't the best starting from 9th grade . 9th grade i started to deal with my depression bad so i wasn't in class a lot . I would also be getting in fights often leading to me also getting expelled. This carried on to about my 11th grade year now I'm trying to put the pieces all together.

Warren Easton is a strong yet laid back school that doesn't force students to come get to societal norms. Instead they encourage you to be yourself and not let those who have more power strip you of your identity.

This school is solely about money. I am giving my review based on a mother who has had a student graduate from a different high school. This school wants the kids to pay for everything even though they require a budget at the beginning of the year for each grade. I transferred my daughter to this sc...

This school is very alum-based meaning most alums give this school 5 stars only because they had a good experience there. Education is a C as of 2022-23 school year. The building is very old. The gym is TOO SMALL and you open a door anywhere and the building just might fall on you. The students are...

Warren Easton not only develops a love of knowledge in their students, they also instill great compassion and self-worth into each student. During my years there I learned the importance of pouring into the community you live in. The life I live isn't purely mine to enjoy. Giving of my time and know...

I love Warren Easton because I graduated from Easton in 1986. The teachers and administrators prepared me for the next level of life. The school offered a rich multi-cultural foundation which I believe helped me to succeed in both my personal and professional life. I wanted my daughter to experience...
