Mount Carmel Academy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mount Carmel Academy or Mt. Carmel is an all-girls parochial high school in New Orleans, Louisiana. It is located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New Orleans.

Mount Carmel's sports team is known as the "Cubs", and its school colors are brown and white.

The campus of Mount Carmel is located in the wealthy Lakeview area of New Orleans at Robert E. Lee Boulevard, between West End Boulevard and Canal Boulevard. The address is 7027 Milne Blvd., New Orleans, Louisiana 70124. Phone: (504) 288.7626.

Mount Carmel has a mascot system by which each of the three upper-class levels is assigned one of three rotating mascots: ragdolls, pink panthers, and purple butterflies. Each year, graduating seniors pass down their mascot to that year's freshman class. Until that time, the freshman class uses a temporary mascot that is unique to each class.

Mount Carmel is located near the 17th Street Canal and suffered extreme flood damage during Hurricane Katrina. The school remained closed for several months, but made repairs at a stunning pace. It re-opened in January of 2006, though much of the neighborhood around the school remains in ruins. ^[1]
