Senior Beverly Brown is representing SSA on the state and
national level! All in one week, she was named a National Merit
Finalist, was chosen one of four Distinguished Finalists in the 2016
Prudential Spirit of Community Awards in Louisiana and is one of
250 finalists for a Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation Award. There
were 87,000 applicants for this award and our Beverly is a finalist!
Go Beverly, we are proud of you.
And on the proud note, super job basketball team! The girls played
a courageous game last night in the first round of the LHSAA
playoffs. This is the first time in 10 years SSA has made it to the BiDistrict round of the LHSAA State Playoffs. The girls ended their
season ranked 28th in the State. Congratulations to the girls and
their coaches Lacey Sharp and Elicia Ocmond.
Good luck to the soccer team as they play their semi-final match
tonight, travelling to Shreveport to play Byrd High School. Let’s
bring our A game and have the opportunity to defend the Division
I title next week. Play hard girls; you can do it!
Congratulations to our SSA Cheerleaders for placing 7th in the
UDA National competition. Coach Mary Simoneaux Egan ‘09
did a marvelous job with the girls and they were outstanding.
As we enter the Lenten season, may you experience the peacefulness
of prayer and reflection that accompany this time in our church.
God’s blessings as we pray, work and study in community.
Elizabeth Cerise LaForge, Ph.D.

When alumnae or alum parents step back on campus, the first thing they
notice are the changes at SSA. The feelings and memories from when they
or their daughters were in school remain the same, and the changes then
become part of their pride for SSA. One of the major changes at the Academy
was the beautification of the Grotto area.
Built in 1910, the Grotto has been recognized as a symbol of spirituality, legacy
and tradition. In recent years, the Grotto has become a gathering place for
seniors to take pictures with their friends on Ring Day, as well as a focus
for other student memories. You can be a part of this Grotto beautification
project by purchasing a paver to:
• Commemorate a cherished loved one
• Honor your daughter for a special event or job well done
• Honor a favorite teacher, coach or mentor
• Honor a classmate or friend
• Honor a graduate or alumna
• Celebrate a birthday or other memorable occasion
