Leo E. Kerner Junior Elementary School

This is by far the best elementary school in Jefferson Parish. The entire faculty works hard, cares about these children and enjoy teaching. Too bad all the other schools are not like this one!

The administration and teachers in our rural school are dedicated wonderful people who take extra special care of their students both academically and emotionally. Our school recently suffered through 4 hurricanes in 4 years and is still here with a possitive outlook for the future of of children and grandchildren

This school is wnderful. My son came from Estelle Elementary where his reading disability was never corrected. Not that the teachers and myself didn't try, the school was too large and the parents had to spend more time on discipline than teaching, admitted to me by a teacher. Since he has been in this school, his reading has increased by two grade levels. Keep in mind he has been here for the first semester only and improved greatly!

This school is a valuable asset to the community of Lafitte. The entire faculty is personally involved with every step of the development of all of the children. I attended this school once and I am proud to send my children as well.
