Established in 1960, Christian Brothers School is a private, Roman Catholic school in the Archdiocese of New Orleans. The school is open to boys in grades five through seven. Covering an area of more than 5-acres, the school has various large grass areas that serve as playing fields for students, and some small ponds that attract birds and other wildlife. Its curriculum is grade-level accelerated in that students are appropriately challenged to master concepts that are more difficult than those typically encountered by students of similar ages. Students daily schedules allow for various physical activities including an organized intramural league during recess and daily physical education classes. Students have more than 20 extracurricular choices, including programs in athletics, academics, service and the arts. Christian Brothers School is located in New Orleans.
