For over 80 years, the Urban League of Louisiana has told the story of how access to equal opportunity is the key to Empowering Communities and Changing Lives. The mission of the Urban League Parent Information Center (ULPIC) is to empower parents to be successful agents and advocates for excellent schools. This requires parents to be educated about school choices and equipped with skills to become leaders in their child’s school. The ultimate goal of ULPIC is to increase student achievement in all schools in New Orleans, while building a more informed and active parent base. The New Orleans Guide to High Schools was created in response to the need for a resource that would aid students and parents in their journey to finding the right high school. Inside you will find information on all public charter, private and Catholic high schools in New Orleans, including: • A map of high schools • Contact information for high schools • Application time-lines, and other information about how and when to apply There is information that everyone can use: • STUDENTS: Tips on finding and getting into the right high school • PARENTS: Information to help in exploring all high school options and on funding a private education • SCHOOL STAFF: Tips for helping students write essays and prepare for interviews • SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS: Information on how schools compare to other schools For additional copies of the New Orleans Guide to High School please call (504) 620-2332 or email: pic@urbanleaguela.org.
