From the Archives St. John’s Class of ’86

ight young ladies formed the Class of ’86—that’s 1886 at ESt. John’s Academy in Indianapolis. They were Clara Loftus, Margaret Hayes, Laura Loftus, Henrietta Foltz, Minnie Stearns, Caroline Mintzer, Elizabeth Dugan, and Ellen Winder. St. John’s Academy was founded in 1859 by the parish and was staffed by Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the- Woods until it closed its doors a century later in 1959. At its opening, 80 students—in both primary and secondary levels—were enrolled. A boys’ school was taught in the same building by a layman, George Goldsberry. In 1860, the Sisters of Providence added wings to the original building for additional classrooms and for accommodations for boarding students. †
