The King of France would rely upon his Assembly of Notables at various key times during the 16th through 18th Centuries for consultation and advice on some of the most important matters of state. Its members were selected by the King for their zeal, devotion and fidelity to France.
Yesterday marked the last official school assembly for Burke’s 2010 Seniors. For the last time as a class and as students, the
members of the 12th Grade “assembled” with the entire school. They performed, sang and talked openly about their time at Burke, as individuals, as a
group, and as part of the broader community. Their words, music, laughter and tears reflected their once, current and future zeal, devotion and fidelity to Burke, to the people there and to one another.
It was a true Assembly of Notables.
Yet another tip of the beret to Judy B. for yet more great photos of the Assembly – all which you can see at BurkePix.
