Cecilia High School (Louisiana)

Cecilia High School (CHS) is a 4A public secondary school located in Cecilia, an unincorporated community in Saint Martin Parish, Louisiana, United States.

Cecilia High School is accredited by the Department of Education of the State of Louisiana and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

Founded in 1922, Cecilia High School is one of three public high schools administered by the Saint Martin Parish School District.

Cecilia High School primarily serves students of northern upper Saint Martin Parish including the communities of Arnaudville, Cecilia, and Henderson. A percentage of the student body, though, live within the jurisdiction of Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, fueling Cecilia's long-standing rivalry with neighboring Breaux Bridge High School; once voted by readers of The Daily Advertiser (Lafayette, Louisiana) as "the largest high school rivalry in Louisiana."

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or school:

    “As high as mind stands above nature, so high does the state stand above physical life. Man must therefore venerate the state as a secular deity.... The march of God in the world, that is what the State is.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    “We are all adult learners. Most of us have learned a good deal more out of school than in it. We have learned from our families, our work, our friends. We have learned from problems resolved and tasks achieved but also from mistakes confronted and illusions unmasked. . . . Some of what we have learned is trivial: some has changed our lives forever.”
    —Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
