A Filler — Notre Dame High School (Crowley, Louisiana)

The three blurry symbols on this insignia represent the three principal Catholic ethnic groups which originally settled the area of Acadia. The Germans (Heraldic Eagle), the Lebanese (Lebanon Cedar tree), and the French (Fleur-de-lis).

Today’s article was going to be Winston Churchill’s father, Lord Randolph Churchill, but there is much to research on this man and I want to do it justice. From Jack the Ripper, to Tory Democracy– is this about paying off small Northern Irish parties? You’re just going to have to wait for that one.

So, instead, I present you with another American High School, Notre Dame High School in Crowley, Louisiana, home of the pioneers

Quite obviously a Catholic school, it was formed in 1967 after consolidating or devouring three other Catholic high schools and is owned by eight church parishes.

The school employs 42 staff, of which 100% are, apparently, faithful Christians who display great loyalty to the Mission of Notre Dame. I think their Twitter bio perfectly sums up the school.
God, education, service, sports and great ND stuff.
The school is not to be scoffed at, as it has achieved a 4.8 star rating on Facebook. Sadly, there are no humorous reasons for the two one-star reviews.

Just seems like a normal, successful high school, which we have Jesus to thank for, so I won’t waste any more of your time. Now, I’ll get to researching Mr. Churchill.
