HONORING OUR BICENTENNIALS – A PAGE FROM THE FAMILY ALBUM

To celebrate the bicentennials of the Daughters of Mary Immaculate and the Society of Mary, FamilyOnline is featuring occasional peeks into the past.

It would be interesting to know the story behind this 1911 photo of Chaminade College Preparatory in St. Louis. Note the drummer who’s second in line. Founded in 1910, Chaminade was the first school in the United States to bear the name of Marianist founder, Blessed William Joseph Chaminade. Today, the school has an enrollment of 830 boys in grades six to 12.
