Estes family says safety, faith and education led them to choose Central
Summary
Members of the Estes family said they moved from Mid City for safety and chose Central for its stated values of faith, family and education while considering other schools including St. Alphonsus and public options.
Forrest Estes and Savannah Estes, residents, said they chose Central for their children because of the school's stated values and the neighborhood's safety.
The Estes family said, "Central's values are faith, family, and education." They added they have "a 4-year-old, and another one on the way," and that those factors helped shape their decision while weighing other options such as St. Alphonsus and public schools.
The family said they moved from Mid City after experiencing safety issues there. "In our neighborhood, kids run around and go to the park. Neighbors take care of neighbors. Businesses take care of businesses," they said, and concluded, "It was Central."
