In preparation for its 150^th anniversary in 1997, this institution, which has produced so many leaders for the community, the state, and the nation, chose Jack Jaubert to create a mural to celebrate the proud and illustrious history of this great school. 

 Jaubert interviewed students, teachers, administrators and alumni.  Using more than 100 people from the history of the school, Jaubert produced this image representing the pride and tradition of the school, as well as the important relationship between the school and the community.

The painting was unveiled as the finale of a program which included an outdoor mass performed by the Archbishop of New Orleans on the grounds of the school before thousands of alumni and community leaders.

Signed and numbered prints of this image were created and marketed by the school. 
The sale of these prints were a financial success for the school.
