This is my first time having a bad experience w schools although my son is in kindergarten. First and foremost when first moving into the neighborhood I called to see if this was the proper school for him to attend the office secretary is definitely rude she didn’t want to give me any information barely wanted to talk and rushed me off of the phone saying just come into the school w what I have and talk to the principal because I didn’t have a second form of residency although I had my lease and everything thing else that is needed I dislike how rude the staff can be especially front office personnel as well as women greeting you at the door in the morning when dropping kids off to school, I’ve been told I’m not able to come into the school upon dropping my son off at school in the mornings in which this is a new (larger) school than he is used to as well as a new area for my son so if walking him into school to insure his safety and calming him emotionally to help him feel comfortable that’s what I’m going to do as a parent I don’t linger around I understand this is a school other parents are dropping off as well as he needs to get to class on time my overall experience is ok after you get passed the rudeness of some of the personnel

"Always people walking their dogs but not a lot of grass areas. As a female walking them at night is slightly concerning since people approach asking for money. "

"Capitol View Place is located near downtown but separated by the state parks, lakes and the capitol complex. It is bordered by the Louisiana Governors Mansion property and the lakes. This is a small, modern, quiet and exclusive subdivision with with some fifteen houses with several valued at over a million dollars and it has a '0' crime rate. This is a beautiful, peaceful residential subdivision and the only one of its kind in the downtown area "
