New Orleans Public Schools Enrollment for 2021-2022

January 13, 2021

NSNO would like to remind families and community members that live in Orleans Parish that OneApp will be closing later this month. Completing the OneApp process is necessary if you are seeking to enroll your child in a new school/program, including enrollment in early childhood or kindergarten for the first time. If you are keeping your child in their current school or you are not seeking new enrollment, you do not need to do anything at this time. The early deadline is this Friday, January 15th.

What schools have an early application deadline? When is the deadline?

While 87% of all public schools in New Orleans are open-enrollment, the following schools and programs require additional verification steps as a part of their application process.

Audubon Charter School French Program (All grades)
Audubon Charter School Montessori Program (All grades)
Edward Hynes Charter School – Lakeview French Immersion Program (Grades 1-2 only)
Edward Hynes Charter School – UNO French Immersion Program (Grades 1- 5 only)

When will the application for all other schools close?
