In the New Orleans Public Schools District (NOPS), students can attend any school (called intradistrict choice) or charter schools. Included in this district is the Recovery School District (RSD) for underperforming schools that require state intervention. The deadline for the public school application is in March. High schoolers can choose career-themed programs such as business administration, computer science, digital arts, finance and health sciences or participate in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program.
