Named by French explorers as the “Red Stick City,” Baton Rouge is Louisiana’s capital city bursting with history and culture. A beautiful fusion of Cajun and Creole culture molds an extraordinary experience throughout this riverfront city.
The Louisiana State Capitol building dominates the landscape of downtown Baton Rouge, a gargantuan tower built in classic 1930s art deco style. Next door, the historic Spanish Town is a popular community for artists and bohemian types, with beautifully preserved homes and tree-shaded streets giving the impression of a charming small town.
While Baton Rouge is home to several colleges, Louisiana State University is the hub of the city. Tiger football is the undisputed center of attention throughout the fall. The famous Tiger Walk, tailgating, and raucous home games at Tiger Stadium, also known as Death Valley, is an experience thousands enjoy every season.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
