There are only 382 chapters; approximately two dozen are located in public schools, and the rest in independent schools. The goal of the Cum Laude Society is to reward those students who display the highest level of academic achievement while remaining tethered to the values of honor and justice. All Saints is proud to join only 12 other Texas private schools who have been awarded charters in the Cum Laude Society.
