History
OLPH was opened in 1946 in Dallas, Texas. It was run by the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word from 1946 until 1972. From 1972 until 1995 education at the school was administered by the School Sisters of Notre Dame. The school was on the verge of closing in 1995, but the Diocese of Dallas kept OLPH open with a lay principal due to petitions from the families of students.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Indeed, the Englishman’s history of New England commences only when it ceases to be New France.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The greatest horrors in the history of mankind are not due to the ambition of the Napoleons or the vengeance of the Agamemnons, but to the doctrinaire philosophers. The theories of the sentimentalist Rousseau inspired the integrity of the passionless Robespierre. The cold-blooded calculations of Karl Marx led to the judicial and business-like operations of the Cheka.”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
“Culture, the acquainting ourselves with the best that has been known and said in the world, and thus with the history of the human spirit.”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
