==History==
The school opened in the 2008-2009 school year at grade nine. As of March 2008 the school's location had not yet been decided, but possible locations were East New Orleans and Gentilly. The school was originally named New Orleans Charter Science and Mathematics Academy which was similar to another New Orleans high school, New Orleans Charter Science and Mathematics High School (SciHigh). Sci Academy was modeled after SciHigh.〔Simon, Darren. "(Five new N.O. charter schools now have homes )." ''Times Picayune''. Thursday March 13, 2008. Updated Thursday December 3, 2009.
