October 9th, 2025


We’re proud to share that St. Martin’s Episcopal School has been named #1 in Best Christian High Schools in the New Orleans Area in Niche’s 2026 Best Schools rankings, earning an overall A grade! 

Each year, Niche evaluates thousands of schools nationwide using a combination of academic data, student and parent reviews, extracurricular opportunities, and college readiness outcomes. St. Martin’s strong performance across all categories reflects the dedication of our talented faculty, the curiosity and compassion of our students, and the unwavering support of our families and community.

“This recognition reinforces what we already know to be true—St. Martin’s is a place where every student is known, loved, and challenged to grow in confidence and purpose,” said Head of School Whitney Samuel Drennan ’94. “Our Episcopal tradition, campus of opportunity, and exceptional teachers create an environment where students thrive academically, spiritually, and personally.”

Thank you to our entire Saints community—students, faculty, staff, parents, and alumni—who make achievements like this possible. Together, we are proving every day that opportunity truly lives here.
