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.
