Preparing Students For Lifelong Success Through A Values-Rich Education
At St. Martin’s, we love seeing our alumni thrive in college and life – it’s our mission. We are a rigorous college preparatory school for ages 8 weeks old to 12th grade, and our graduates are leaders across New Orleans and beyond. They have helped to shape their communities in the fields of medicine, law, policy, real estate, education, politics, the arts, and more.
The success of our students stems from St. Martin’s approach to education. Our curriculum stands out for its emphasis on flexible and transferable knowledge, practical application skills, character development, and meta-learning. We focus on helping children learn how to think, not what to think, preparing them to thrive in an ever-changing world.
Our school fosters an environment that offers more than just academics; it’s a community where each person is valued, known, and celebrated for their individuality. We reject the one-size-fits-all approach, instead nurturing each child with personalized attention that empowers them to thrive academically and emotionally. Our students feel a true sense of belonging as part of a strong, tight-knit community that supports and encourages them to reach their fullest potential.
Guided by our Episcopal values, St. Martin’s fosters the development of strong moral and ethical foundations in every child. Compassion, empathy, respect, honesty, and kindness are at the heart of our educational philosophy, ensuring students not only excel but lead with integrity. We welcome children and families from all faiths, ethnicities, races, backgrounds, and perspectives. We demonstrate diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice in all its forms.
Our expansive 18-acre campus is a dynamic environment where students grow through exposure to and participation in a variety of experiences. With facilities that include a chapel, 500-seat theater, visual arts building, swimming pool, gymnasiums, athletic fields, science labs, a STeaM lab for younger students, and a well-outfitted makerspace, students have the space and resources to explore their interests and challenge themselves.
From performing on stage in the state-of-the-art Solomon Theater to competing in our top-tier athletic facilities or exploring new ideas in the Gibbs Family Center for Innovation + Design, our students are constantly expanding their horizons and pushing themselves to achieve more. With the support of expert faculty, staff, coaches, and counselors, St. Martin’s students gain the confidence and skills to surpass their own expectations.
We are committed to nurturing every student’s growth—not just as scholars but as people who contribute meaningfully to society. It’s not enough to show knowledge; our students learn to demonstrate what they can do with what they know. By focusing on the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills, St. Martin’s equips students for success both academically and as engaged citizens.
The St. Martin’s experience is a lifelong gift, providing the foundation for success long after graduation. We look forward to getting to know your child and your family. Join us for an upcoming Open House or schedule a personal tour to see if St. Martin’s is the right fit for your family.
