    LA SALLE ACADEMY 2017-2018 ANNUA L UPDATE OUR MISSION The mission of La Salle Academy, a rigorous college-preparatory high school, is to educate students of diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds with special outreach to those most in need. We provide a nurturing environment, which fosters spiritual, moral, intellectual, emotional and physical growth in the Roman Catholic tradition and the Lasallian spirit, as embodied in St. John Baptist de La Salle. We create experiences of community within the school and encourage each student to develop their gifts and talents for their own growth, as well as engage in the caring service of others, through its academic, extra-curricular and spiritual programs. LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD Dear Members of the La Salle Community, As we begin another school year, I wanted to take the opportunity to update the La Salle Community on a few of the things happening at La Salle. At the close of fiscal 2018, we find ourselves in one of the best financial positions the school has ever been in. We have just concluded our fourth consecutive year of significant growth in fund raising with nearly $2.7M and our projections are to exceed that amount again this year. I would like to congratulate our administration and faculty led by Dr. Catherine Guerriero. Over the past year, we have expanded to the third floor in our current building and have added a band room, a Chapel, a special education classroom and a library. In addition, we now have more flagship programs than ever before that wrap around the core academic work of La Salle: La Salle in the City (action-based learning trips), La Salle @2:30 (after-school clubs), La Salle Works (internships), La Salle Partners (several collegiate partnerships including The Cooper Union, NYU, La Salle University and St.

Values Statement The College fulfills its mission by pursuing three ideals: excellence in education, a sense of community, and a commitment to service. These ideals were handed down to us by the Marist Brothers who founded the College. Now an independent institution governed by a lay board of trustees, Marist continues to embrace the three ideals as an integral part of the College mission. Excellence in Education Marist achieves its ideal of excellence in undergraduate, graduate, and professional education by actively engaging each student through exemplary teaching and distinc- tive learning opportunities. At the undergraduate level, this begins with a firm foundation in the liberal arts and sciences. Through the core curriculum and major fields of study, students learn to think logically and creatively, to synthesize and integrate methods and insights from a variety of disciplines, and to express themselves effectively orally, in writing, and through media.
