Our experience at St. Andrew’s has been amazing! Our boys transferred here after the craziness of the pandemic, and the staff and administration really did what they could to ensure our boys’ transitions went smoothly. The environment is so welcoming, and the school feels like a big family. I love how involved everyone is. The boys love their new school, and can’t wait to tell us about their day! St. Andrew’s focuses not only on providing a well-rounded education, but also character, integrity and kindness, which is modeled throughout the school.

The St. Andrew’s community is such a welcoming and inclusive family! My two children and I cherish the four years we spent teaching and attending school there. Although we moved out of state two years ago, my children are still invited to their St. Andrew’s friends’ birthday parties, and enjoy regular phone calls and mail correspondence with their dear friends. Four of our St. Andrew’s friends even made the six hour drive to visit us! St. Andrew’s is such a special place and we dearly hope to return one day if life brings us back to New Orleans.

St. Andrew’s has been a part of my family’s life for almost 40 years. My older sister and I both graduated from St. Andrew’s and my mom, Mrs. Reed, was the amazing Kindergarten teacher for over 25 years. I am now a proud parent of two little boys who attend St. Andrew’s. My oldest started as a Honeybee in the Cottage and is now in PK, and my youngest is a Honeybee this year. I love St. Andrew’s because of the welcoming environment and the love that everyone shows to the kids The teachers are amazing and my oldest has blossomed while attending St. Andrew’s. I have also found a community of parents that I am proud to call my friends. I am so grateful to St. Andrew’s for the positive impacts on my life.

St Andrew’s is the only choice as far as I’m concerned when thinking about where to send my kids in NOLA. As an alumni I can say that attending St Andrews had a monumental affect both on my successful academic career, as well as planting and instilling in me  a deep rooted sense of altruism and community,  that has been monumental in my life today as a healthcare professional. My brother and I often joke as adults that it was like growing up on Sesame St, the best years of our lives, and most cherished memories were those we shared at St Andrews! I’m still friends with most of my class, and teachers for that matter, on Facebook today, and it’s a heartwarming feeling to watch my girls love the school as much as I did!

Discovering St. Andrew’s was the best thing that happened to our family. The school is a hidden gem – a warm, welcoming and nurturing community. The teachers are loving and attentive. They instill confidence in the children and set them up for success each and every day. My kids find learning fun and look forward to going to school. Each day is a new adventure!

We love St. Andrew’s, I feel like the slogan should be, ‘where a kid can be a kid!’ Even though it is nurturing and small they are strong in academics! So grateful one son graduated from here and another still has 5 more years!
