Dances
During the academic year, De La Salle and Carondelet High Schools host a number of dances for their students, and in some cases, for guests. All events are coordinated through the Student Activities offices of both schools. For De La Salle, Mrs. Jennifer Stein, Director of Student Activities, will be the point person for all student activity events. Should you have any questions about any of the school dances, please contact Mrs. Stein at steinj@dlshs.org.

Senior Ball is a formal dance and students are expected to dress up for the occasion. Per our Student Handbook, as with any school event, attire must be appropriate for school. We encourage students to have conversations with their families about what appropriate means to them and to connect with the Deans, Mrs. Stein, or Ms. Lettire (at CHS) if they have any questions about a specific dress or item of clothing. Tuxedos, Jackets, formal dresses, and jumpsuits are strongly encouraged.
Parking is limited to on-street parking, so students are encouraged to ride share. There will be a coat check available at the dance and we recommend not leaving any valuables in the car or at the coat check. No backpacks are allowed in the dance and all small bags will be subject to search.
