Benjamin Franklin High School is a charter high school and a magnet high school in New Orleans , Louisiana . Commonly nicknamed "Franklin" or "Ben Franklin", the school was founded in 1957 as a school for gifted children. Ben Franklin is consistently named the No.1 school in the state of Louisiana and has been ranked by U.S. News & World Report as No. 15 charter school in the nation. In 1990, it moved to its current location on the campus of the University of New Orleans (UNO) in the Lake Terrace/Lake Oaks neighborhood of Orleans Parish , near Lake Pontchartrain . The school was damaged by several feet of flood water due to Hurricane Katrina in the fall of 2005, and efforts to reopen the school were covered by nationwide news agencies. The school is part of the Orleans Parish School Board (OPSB), yet it operates as a charter school and is not administered directly by the agency.
Ben Franklin has a selective admissions process, and according to
CBS News is a "magnet for the city's smart and motivated students." Andrew Vanacore, of
The Times Picayune , wrote in 2013 that Franklin was "top-notch". It has been named a
Blue Ribbon School five times by the
U.S. Department of Education , and was ranked 16 on the 2009 "America's Best High Schools" list by
U.S. News & World Report . The class of 2008 produced 17
National Achievement Semifinalists , the most of any school in the
United States . In 2021,
U.S. News & World Report ranked the school as the best public high school in Louisiana and the 64th best in the United States. (
