McGehee's Honor Code truly lays the foundation for a community of unique, independent girls who follow rules and instruction because of what's right. Each student is her own individual person and is able to build her own unique style, aspirations, and interests. The Honor Code allows for a mutual respect between students and teachers, which creates a calm environment in the classroom that makes learning much easier. I think there are many great things about the community at McGehee that most students don't realize or take fo... read more
Louise S. McGehee School is a tight knit community of people who want you to succeed. The teachers are always available to help you with any school work and are invested in helping you.
McGehee is amazing and the only place we could imagine sending our daughter in New Orleans. The girls who are at McGehee are extraordinary confident, smart, kind, and ready to tackle the world. In lower school the girls study everything from Shakespeare (at 7 my daughter could read elementary versions of Hamlet, As You Like It, Twelfth Night, Macbeth, etc.), engineering, Louisiana history, basic economics, French, dance, soccer, early algebra, and so much more. The teachers and administration at McGehee are the best we have ... read more
The most influential experience of my lifetime! The teachers, the staff, the friends, each person on campus is there to make sure that you succeed and that you are held to a high standard. Truly shaped me into hard working person I am today.
Family oriented and the teachers really enjoy teaching the kids!!! I'm very happy that my daughter calls McGehee home! Very safe environment..... we Love it!
This school takes a young girl and produces an well-educated, poised, self-confident young woman who knows her mind and who will excel in college. Unlike other schools in New Orleans, McGehee specifically focuses on teaching 21st century learning skills such as communication, collaboration and creativity, rather than a large quantity of AP classes. In this way, I think the graduates are more prepared for life and education beyond high school and not just getting a leg up on the college classes they will take.
The teachers really care and support the students.
The school is completely fenced with only one way in and out during the school day so its very safe.
The teaching staff is small and great. They seem to know and support the students inside the classroom and outside of the classroom. They attend events and activities. The classroom communication is consistent and personal. The teachers reach out to the parents and support the students.
