Case Study: Stuart Hall School for Boys achieves reliable, easy-to-manage internet filtering with ContentWatch's ContentProtect

New Orleans Boys School Back in Business Finding Ways to Become Even More Than Before

Stuart Hall School for Boys, an all-boys Catholic school in New Orleans serving nursery through seventh grade, faced post‑Katrina recovery challenges including lower enrollment (about 270 vs. a 330 capacity) and a need to modernize its network. The school's prior web‑filtering software was slow, difficult to manage, and overblocked educational sites, so Director of Technology Bob Krieger selected ContentProtect from ContentWatch to meet the school’s filtering and management needs.

ContentWatch’s ContentProtect was deployed across the school’s 90‑computer student network, using dynamic filtering, per‑user policies, and white/blacklisting to block inappropriate content while allowing valuable educational sites; administrators can manage it locally or remotely and receive alerts on attempted access. The change eliminated the old filter’s performance and setup problems, improved monitoring and user‑level control, and was backed by responsive support from ContentWatch (a licensing issue was resolved in a five‑minute call), restoring reliable classroom Internet access.
