Isidore Newman School is an independent, coeducational, non-sectarian day school at 1903 Jefferson Avenue in Uptown New Orleans, Louisiana, on an 11-acre campus. It was founded in 1903 by New Orleans philanthropist Isidore Newman, founder of the Maison Blanche department stores, and opened in 1904 as the Isidore Newman Manual Training School. It took its present name in 1931. The school serves students from early childhood through 12th grade in Lower, Middle and Upper Schools, and it is accredited by NAIS. Newman offers 21 AP courses, three world languages and two design and innovation labs. Its motto is Discimus Agere Agendo, meaning "We learn to do by doing." Hurricane Katrina closed the school for two months in 2005.
