I know that the norm here is to have schools named after people be reffered to solely by last name, but in this case I believe this is not suitable for two reasons. First of all, the school (unlike say Jamieson or McKechnie) is never reffered to (either colloquially or in print) as Quesnel. Seconly, since Jules-Maurice Quesnel is a relatively obscure historical figure, some may be mislead into believing that the school is named after the town of Quesnel, British Columbia (or the lake or river) and not the french-canadian explorer.

The link in the private school section to St. Augustine's is actually to a totally different school located in India.

I attended St. Augustine's school for my elementary years of schooling. I was surprised to see an error like this.

An article for the actual school seems to be non-existent. I think I could try to create a new article but it is likely that it would result in a small stub.

Can anyone offer a temporary solution until someone writes an article? I will attempt to gather the resources to write a good article. I live very close to the school.
