Delevan Drive Elementary School

Totally love this school my son loves it too and great school for the kids and parents highly recommended.

I went to this school way back in the 60s. I loved it and live close so I visit the area often. Of course alot has changed but I remember the Science Center and that other schools used to come to visit the science center for f field trips. I am glad to see that it is still a good school as I had a great experience there. I had a crush on my 5th grade teacher who was the coolest ever. There are alot more buildings now on the playground. When I was there it was all open playground and only the 2 story buildings that are there. Keep up the good work Delevan, you are the best.

We saw them all - public, private, charter, magnet, charter-magnet, and still ended up at Delevan because it's got the best academics out there. (Also it's pretty much the only elementary school with open enrollment in NELA!) And the arts & science programs they brand really well elsewhere, they have those too, just not in as shiny a package. The school is getting a new building though, and working towards International Baccalaureate accreditation, which would bring foreign language education to the school too. Lots of good things happening. Take a tour and check it out!

My son loves learning here! Teacher and staff have worked together with us to find solutions whenever he's had a hard time adapting in the classroom. We've seen involved families, great academics, and an adaptive approach to teaching that focuses on the kids' needs. Says a lot that teachers want to stay here for years or even decades, even when a lot of staff development is required for new programs & tech.
