CARENCRO PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS
Carencro Parochial Schools Examination, Jan. 24, 1894
The boys of St. Peter's Academy, under the guidance of Prof. C. F. Latiolais, proved worthy of
their school. Masters Clarence Bernard, Ernest Coussau and Viateur Grenier, proved
very efficient in U.S. History, Geography, grammar, arithmetic and definitions. Masters
Camille Couvillion, Ulysse Lacour and David Martin, could not be embarrassed either in
reading or spelling, definintions or geography. Among the lower classes (which we could
not attempt to give a prolonged account) we may, without prejudice, highly compliment
Masters Hubert Dupuis, Leonce and Andre Prejean, whose accuracy and promptness in
answering could not help being noticed by the audience. The girls, under the management
of Miss Melchior, were quick, intelligible and accurate both in the answers and recitations.
Among them we may cite Misses Sarah Brown, Euchariste Mathieu and Lizzie Dimitry as
having taken the honors of the school. Miss Brown's recitation of "Somebody's Darling
Slumbers Here," could not have been better, and in her recitation of "Le Trois Jours
de Christophe Colomb," she carried the audience. Every class was thoroughly examined and
all were very successful.
