Patron of school teachers and principals.
John Baptist de LaSalle was born in Rheims France. He believed that all children, rich and poor, deserved a good education. He also recognised that a good education depended on good teachers. St. John founded the Brothers of the Christians Schools to provide teachers for the poor. He began the first teachers college and was the first to divide students into grades. He also introduced the blackboard and the study of literature and mathematics. He gave his sizeable family fortune to the poor during the great famine of 1683.
The unique making process of these porcelain pendants allows for more detail in designs than other mediums. These designs are fired into the clay at 2200 degrees, so they will not peel or wear off. Each piece is surprisingly lightweight.
