History
Established in 1903.
For more than a century, Isidore Newman School has graced Jefferson Avenue in Uptown New Orleans. It began as just one building, and was founded to educate children living at the Jewish Orphans’ Home on nearby St. Charles Avenue. But from the beginning, the School’s benefactor, Isidore Newman, stipulated that neighborhood children could also attend. And they did. Quickly, Newman became one of the most revered and respected independent schools in the city. It remains so today.
