What Louisiana’s list covers

The nonpublic schools Louisiana’s Board of Elementary and Secondary Education approves for the school year, from the Department of Education’s list of August 2026; approval is voluntary, so the private schools that don’t seek it aren’t here. The list gives each school’s parish, not its town or address, so schools are placed by parish. NCES’s survey counted 361 private schools in Louisiana in 2021-22.
