The Bishop's mitreon top is green ona white background and the staff and open Bible are in the bottom half on a red background. The left side (sinister) has three skeins of cotton and a Chevcon (inverted v) on a blue background. This side represents the ancient house to which Bishop Cotton belongede.

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“While most of today’s jobs do not require great intelligence, they do require greater frustration tolerance, personal discipline, organization, management, and interpersonal skills than were required two decades and more ago. These are precisely the skills that many of the young people who are staying in school today, as opposed to two decades ago, lack.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
