I left here an academic year ago and I loved it. Most teachers are nice and your child’s learning is there no. 1 priority. I feel that they have a good work and fun balance. One thing I wish they had back was extracurricular activities. They used to have cheer and choir but COVID sadly happened. Other than that it’s an amazing school!

BCPS is a wonderful school, both of my kids have excel in their academics, make wonderful friends and memories. We are moving out of state but this school is a gem in small Belle Chasse. I would recommend it to anyone. Teachers are wonderful, Ms. Panepinto, Ms. Naquin & Ms. Ragas are so engaging and caring.

Belle Chasse Primary School is AMAZING! The faculty and staff go out of their way to make you feel at home. I pulled my child from a catholic school to attend BCPS and I am so thankful I did. I know I made a great choice for all of my children.

I absolutely LOVE BCP! My son is in pre-k 4 and is doing so well and has advanced in so many areas. The teachers and staff are excellent. The faculty knows students by name which is very nice, considering the amount of students they have. It's a wonderful school all around and i would recommend this school to anyone!

the staff is kind but the academics are subpar compared to other schools. i had to pull my child from this school because i was extremely let down.

I hear the teacher are awesome. It is really good that they are strict. I have nieces and nephews that attend BCP and in my opinion it is just challenging as a private school. We are so lucky to have great schools.

Anti-Military!!!! As a military member who recently transferred into the area, this school refused to acknowledge my six year old daughter as a first grader and insisted I could only enroll her as a kindergartner even though she had completed 90% of Kindergarten at a school in California. They also refused to give my daughter an assessment until we called the school board. During the assessment, my daughter was tested by herself by a school administrator, not a teacher, even though there was a teacher giving the same assessment to other children at the same time. Also, the assessor kept leaving the room and going into the principal s office while administering. Finally, they ended the assessment and refused to continue when my daughter supposedly did not do to well on one portion. Recent research has shown that this school has had the military school liaison escorted off the facility by police when she went over there to discuss issues military members have been having. This school has even been overheard referring to military members and their families as trash .
