Rachel Car

"Lady of Assumption"

Ms. Car started Lady of Assumption Catholic school in the first grade at age six. She wore a red plaid uniform, white starched shirt, saddle shoes, and little frilly white socks - all of which she hated, claiming the outfit looked "frumpy."

When it came time for the children to take communion, Rachel refused to participate because she didn't understand what the process represented. Her mother was informed of the incident, but backed up her daughter's decision.

Consequently, that first year was the only one she spent at Lady of Assumption.
