Morris Jeff Community School
We are driven by two fundamental goals: building an institution of the highest academic caliber for our children and transforming public education in our City, and beyond. Morris Jeff Community School embraces learners of all backgrounds and holds each student to the highest expectations. Students are provided with a deep, rich curriculum that engages them in inquiry, develops strong critical thinking skills, and challenges them to a new level of learning. We prepare students of Morris Jeff Community School to become lifelong learners. But Morris Jeff Community School is not just about one school or one neighborhood. We see ourselves as part of movement to transform public education in our country. Our school was imagined and built out of thousands of conversations, with parents, community members and professional educators. This grassroots approach to educational reform has created Morris Jeff as one of the most racially and economically diverse public schools in the history of New Orleans.
