Slidell High School is an extraordinary school filled with amazing teachers and staff. Unfortunately there is also a lot of violence and fights at Slidell High. This does not take away from the positive aspects of this school however, as the community here is one of the strongest I have ever been a part of. You can really see how many teachers care about their students here, and I greatly appreciated that about Slidell High.

The "melting pot" of Slidell. Very diverse school - has everyone there. My mother went to that school and I will be graduating from there in May, 2023. I've received an excellent education from this school.
