Crusader students traveled to Baton Rouge this past weekend to compete in the State Literary Rally. Each student earned his place at the state level by a top-five finish at the District Literary Rally, held at Loyola University last month. State competition is tough; the best students from across the state gather to compete.
The purpose of LHSRA is to provide opportunities for students to achieve a greater awareness of the importance of education in these critical times and gain a renewed determination to develop their talents to the maximum by promoting keen competition and a desire for excellence, and in recognizing academic endeavors on a statewide level. Furthermore, it is an enlightened way of recognizing and rewarding students who excel in that for which all schools are primarily established, academic pursuits.
Congratulations to the four Crusaders who placed at the state level:
| Patrick Bouchon | Calculus | 1st Overall |
| Brandt Rebert | French I | 1st Overall |
| Zachary Baier | Physics | 4th Place Division I |
| Van Smith | Spanish II | 2nd Place Division I |
