No school in this parish can compare to the curriculum and teaching staff. A model school that has a waiting list.
I attend this school i came here in kindergarten and i couldnt read...i started reading in first grade thanks to the wonderful staff here i am the best reader in my class...I love my school and i reccomend it to every child on the earth...This school has good descipline and it helps everyone..we learn ahead of the rest of the schools on the parish and if u think this is a bad school i really dont see how cause it is an amzing school.
This school is the best because of it's very dynamic,caring,and professional principal-Mrs.Noel.She requires/demands the very best of herself,and all of the school staff,and most of all,our children.She,along with the others,make this school all it can be-the very best!!!
Everyone states how great this school is. This was not my experience. The principal is very unreasonable and in my opinion very judgemental. We took our daughter out of this school and she had nothing but great success. The pricipal do not think outside of the box and wants all students to fit in the one mold. Guess what this is not real world. I would never recommend this school to anyone. Keep in mind it's not difficult to be a shining star among such low performing schools.
We have the best principal on this side of heaven. Is the head is is order it's so easy for the body to follow.
I Love John L. Ory School because its a great School!!! The Teacherse nice and care for the students, my son likes it & that means a lot to me, because this is his first year in Kindergarden. My prayer is that God Bless This School always
This is the ONLY public school in St. John Parish that I would send my daughter to. I am so thankful that she was selected! My daughter has grown so much, both academically and socially since she started attending this school. The teachers are wonderful and the principal, Mrs. Noel, truly cares about the students. The faculty and staff really have their act together. I wish the grade levels would go all the way through high school.
My son has attended this school since kindergarten. I am very pleased academically. The principal is very strong and expects great things from the students and they respect her and deliver. The parental support at this school is strong which I believe leads to strong kids and academic success.
I have two girls, and they have been very challenged since they have attended this school, the amount of reading and testing is unbelievable. I don't think any school in the parish can compete with John L Ory. The discipline is there and very much enforced. I feel my children will be very prepared for high school when the time comes.

This is a great school full of parental involvement, lots of hard work, strict discipline , but fun school . This is the best in the parish. Wish it would go up to 12th grade.
I have 4 children who have attended or still attend John L Ory and they love it. The teachers are caring, the children are well disciplined as well. Very organized, in my opinion the best public elementary school in St. John Parish.
My son has done very well at this school. This school has been a blessing in our lives! The staff and teachers are wonderful and caring. They have great Leap and Iowa results. The school is very organized and disciplined. I am very happy my son attends this school. My older girls went there and we still keep in touch with some teachers there.Now hopefully my four year old will attend.
this school good,,, but alot of things are not. it's good with learning skills and activities. the teachers and staff needs to prevent the fightings. help the students not to tease or pick on others.
This school has been a blessing in our lives! Being one of the only decent schools in a very educationally lacking parish, both of my children have had wonderful experiences at this school!
