One of the best high schools in Baton Rouge. I''m very glad I chose to come here. Great faculty, great athletics, and especially great academics. Do not let the fact that it's an all-boys school scare you away. We interact with SJA girls every day.

Come here, it is a great school with great support from the Brothers of the Sacred Heart.
