Growing Academy

Enrollment increased steadily for many years, encouraging the sisters to purchase a tract of land in Northwest Waco and lay plans for the construction of a larger school. However, these plans never came to fruition, and the Sisters donated the twenty-three acres to the Diocese of Galveston in 1941. Two parochial schools—St. Louis School and Reicher High School—later opened at that site and remain active today.
