PLAN ENLARGEMENT OF
IMMACULATE CONCEPTION
ACADEMY IN AUGUSTA
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Under the
leadership of their pastor, the Rev.
George Laugel, S. M. A., members
of the Immaculate Conception par
ish have launched a campaign to
raise $10,000 for the purpose. of
enlarging and making improve
ments to the Immaculate Concep
tion Academy, conducted by the
Missionary Franciscan Sisters of
the Immaculate Conception.
For morg than thirty-five years
the Immaculate Conception school
has served the Colored youth of
Augusta. Its faculty is compos
ed of outstanding teachers, who
hold certificates from such states
as New York, Pennsylvania, Min
nesota and Massachusetts where
all of them taught before coming
to Georgia. The school is accred
ited with the Department of Edu
cation of the State of Georgia, and
its graduates ha\ j given excel
lent accounts of themselves in col
leges and in the business and pro
fessional world.
The pfesent school building was
erected in 1912. It is a substan
tial two-story, eight-room brick
building, facing on Eleventh
street, and standing adjacent to
the Immaculate Conception
Church, on Gwinnett street, at the
corner of Eleventh street. There
is a playground attached to the
school.
Enrollment at the school last year
reached close to four hundred pu
pils, 134 boys and 237 girls, which
taxed the capacity of the building
to the utmost. In fact, for sev
eral years, a hundred or more pu
pils had to be turned away as the
school was not able to accommo
date them.
The Immaculate Conception
Academy, in addition to the ele
mentary grades, includes the first
Colored high school to be estab
lished in this city, and it has at
tracted many non-Catholic stu
dents.
With the approval of His Excel
lency the Most Rev. Gerald P.
O’Hara, D. D., J. U. D., Bishop of
Savannali-Atlanta, the members of
the Immaculate Conception parish

public statement he had made a

the papers in the United Stats.
“There is no stronger influence
that exists in the world today than
