History
Louis St. Laurent School is a combination junior/senior high school in the Edmonton Catholic School District, created from the former Cartier McGee Junior High School and Louis St. Laurent High School, and in 1974, a central hallway was constructed to connect the two schools on the ground floor. The connector was further modified in 1993 in order to include a large ancillary room, which serves as a meeting room and lunch hall, as well as facilitating for other activities that require a large, open space. The school is named for the 12th Prime Minister of Canada, Louis Stephen St. Laurent.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The principle that human nature, in its psychological aspects, is nothing more than a product of history and given social relations removes all barriers to coercion and manipulation by the powerful.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
“The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The principal office of history I take to be this: to prevent virtuous actions from being forgotten, and that evil words and deeds should fear an infamous reputation with posterity.”
—Tacitus (c. 55–c. 120)
