Welcome to De La Salle High School!
Our proud tradition of Catholic Lasallian Education has its roots in Saint John Baptist de la Salle who lived over three hundred years ago. He believed that the role of the Brothers having schools was to teach students to lead good lives by inspiring them with Christian maxims. Saint John Baptist de la Salle firmly believed that “no matter how much faith they have, nor how lively it may be, if [the students] are not practicing any good works at all, their faith will be of no use to them.”
We are an institution that produces men of faith, integrity, and scholarship. A trade mark of our Lasallian schools is “Enter to Learn – Leave to Serve.” We must be committed first and foremost to challenge our young men to be the Good News in a world that is counter-cultural to what they are taught. They must be the change they want to see the world and it is our responsibility to ensure that they have the necessary skills to be successful in the endeavor.
I am honored to be leading De La Salle High School in such exciting times and encourage you to learn more about the amazing students, faculty, and administrators that form the De La Salle community. Thank you to all who are visiting with us today.
In the Spirit of Saint John the Baptist de La Salle,
Mark DeMarco '78
President
