Bishop McManus Academy is a private Christian school in New Orleans East for grades PK2 - 8. The Academy has been serving young people and their families since 1975. BMA was founded as a means to provide a quality education in a safe environment, along with a strong Christian foundation. Academic rigor, engaged student life and Christian spirituality are hallmarks of a BMA education. We believe that the process of teaching and learning, occurs most effectively when instructors, students and their parents are properly aligned to work as a team.
