Our Crest PIETAS, SCIENTIA, VERITAS—such is the legend our Crest carries, and such is the ideal St. Margaret's inspires. The symbolism of the Crest further carries out our motto. The design of the shield, the form, the fleur-de-lis, the colors, the daisy, and the crown, all tell of the origin of the St. Joseph Order, our special virtues, our school flower, and the patron saint of our Academy. The Shield is of pointed Norman style, but the rigid lines of the thirteenth century have been bent to form graceful curves. The colors of the Shield proper are azure—represented by horizontal lines—meaning truth, freedom, and loyalty: silver, signifying brightness, purity, and virtue: and gold, expressed in black and white by means of dots—standing for wealth, ability, and knowledge. About the top of the Shield, supporting the Roman Lamp of Learning, is the school flower, the Dayesye or Marguerite, emblem of innocence. The green of the leaves is here represented by diagonal lines running from left to right: like spring foliage, the green suggests hope, life, and youth. On the azure field, to the right, is the gold Crown of St. Margaret of Scotland, the Patron Saint of the School. The Crown—with its three Jewels, Faith, Hope, and Charity—typifies power. To the left are three golden Fleur-de-Lis. emblems of fidelity, taken from Coat of Arms of the City of Lyons, France, where one of the earliest houses of the Sisters of St. Joseph was located. With the Fleur-de-Lis are the three Pearls from the Crown—both are emblems, therefore, of the Sisterhood teaching at the Academy. The bend representing success, running from left to right has been formed in waves suggesting geographical location on the Mississippi River. The Crest has been placed in a circle signifing Eternity. May the Seniors who have for four years enjoyed the blessings of St. Margaret's, and the Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshman who still have happy days before them in which to enjoy these blessings, be living emblems of the virtues— PIETY. KNOWLEDGE, and TRUTH.
