Audubon Schools operates a network of public elementary institutions based in New Orleans, Louisiana, delivering specialized primary and secondary education. Established in 1981, the organization initially began as a Montessori school before securing an official designation as a French School through a historic agreement between the French Government and the State of Louisiana. The network currently includes the Audubon Uptown campus serving over 800 students in grades K-8 and the Audubon Gentilly campus, which accommodates students from grades K-7 with plans to expand capacity to 450 students in grades K-8 by 2024. Both locations provide unique programming not found in other public schools within the city, combining Montessori methodologies with authentic French language immersion.
The organization emphasizes a holistic educational approach that cultivates the whole child through individualized, hands-on learning and a comprehensive arts curriculum. In 2025, the network expanded its footprint to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with the opening of Audubon Baton Rouge to serve students in grades K-5. This new campus adopts the innovative academic model of the Gentilly location, prioritizing arts integration alongside Montessori-based academics and French language infusions. Governed by the Board of French and Montessori Education, Inc., Audubon Schools maintains a mission to foster a culturally rich and academically rigorous environment for New Orleans and surrounding communities.
