New Orleans Charter Science and Mathematics High School, also known as Sci High, offers specialized instruction in science, math, and technology, welcoming interested New Orleans high school students. The $32 million, 106,500 sf school is designed to serve an anticipated enrollment of 700 students.
In 2021, Sci High moved into its new facility, designed by VergesRome Architects to support the school’s coursework and mission. The facility, fully ADA accessible, includes specialty labs for biomedical, health, engineering and skilled crafts courses supporting the school’s emphasis on rigorous STEM courses. The new facility, located one block from the Lafitte Greenway and two blocks from the new biomedical corridor, was designed for LEED Silver Certification.

Due to the small size of the building site, the school is designed with an elevated gymnasium to allow space below for parking and play.
