In 1949, Pat Kehoe and Frank France were young educators with a dream to develop a non-denominational coeducational elementary school that focused on the fundamentals of academics while providing students with opportunities to engage in the arts and athletics. Since then, the school has become a place of excellence where all students are engaged in high quality, real-world learning.Kehoe-France is a family community committed to academic excellence for students aged 8 weeks to 7th grade. A professional and highly motivated staff, in partnership with parents, encourages children to achieve their full potential and become responsible citizens who are lifelong learners. Kehoe-France graduates are accepted into the finest high schools, in the New Orleans area, in order to continue on their path to success.
