La Salle Academy 2017-2018 Annual U P D A 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. John’s University), La Salle Abroad (study abroad – Spain last July plus Italy for Art and California for STEM study in April 2019, La Salle Mentors (mentoring program), La Salle in the Summer (academic programs) and La Salle Supports (SAT prep). Our Board continues to look ahead. We are currently assessing the progress we’ve made over the past few years and strategically planning to determine the future of La Salle. Indeed, these are very exciting times at our school. Thank you to our Trustees for their participation and leadership this year, and a special thanks to Co-Vice Chairmen, Marty Cottingham ’88 and Carl Gambino ’76 for their tireless work and support of our mission. On behalf of the Board of Trustees, thank you for your on-going commitment to La Salle Academy. Sincerely, Salvatore LaRocca ’82 Chairman, La Salle Academy Board of Trustees LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT/PRINCIPAL Dear Friends and Alumni of La Salle Academy, We kicked off fiscal 2018 with a bang! At the start, La Salle officially expanded our footprint to a full one-third more capacity, allowing us to recruit more students, pro- vide our faculty with their own classrooms and set aside separate spaces for music education and catechesis. Our trajectory for the future has, in a word, skyrocketed. At La Salle, we lovingly referred to the last year as the “Year of Assessments.” High off our expanded footprint, our faculty and staff – and even our students – dove in head first and meticulously prepared for the Middle States Accreditation Evaluation and the Lasallian Mission Assessment Process. The results were nothing less than stellar – we passed with flying colors and “exceeded expectations.” La Salle also experienced our biggest fundraising year yet, with close to $2.7 million raised in development revenue. That is special thanks to you, our supporters and friends who have shepherded us along with your generosity and kindness. You helped us break the glass ceiling of fundraising for a Catholic high school with a needs-based mission. Who would have thought that a high school, let alone La Salle Academy, would close in on their $2 million scholarship gala goal and come close to $3 million raised in a year? That’s just how we do things now at the “new” La Salle. On May 31st, our Class of 2018 wore sleek black tuxedos and walked down the aisle at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral to receive their diplomas, as is now tradition among our senior class. 100% of these young men were accepted to college, 97% enrolled and the remaining graduates enlisted in the armed forces to serve our country and protect the flag. Take a look at the pages of this annual report and you’ll see. This is our new La Salle. It can only go up from here. St. John Baptist de La Salle… pray for us. Live, Jesus, in our hearts. Forever! Sincerely, Catherine L. Guerriero, M.P.A., Ph.D. President/Principal YEAR OF ASSESSMENTS The 2017-18 academic period at La Salle Academy will be remembered as the “Year of Assessments.” La Salle’s administration went through two grueling assessment pro- cesses to evaluate the school’s educational quality as well as the Catholic and Lasallian character based on the mission of St. John Baptist de La Salle. In 2017, La Salle hosted an accreditation team from the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, which conducts accreditation evaluations every seven years. After four years of data collection, La Salle Academy was given top preliminary honors, with an “exceeding expectations” prelimi- nary grade by the Middle States Evaluation Accreditation team. In fact, La Salle received national, formal accreditation six months ear- lier than expected. Middle States highlighted our English, History and Math departments and targeted our Guidance Department as championships and one state championship.

Readers of this article have the copyright owner’s permission to reproduce it for educational, not-for- profit purposes, if the author and publisher are acknowledged in the copy. Lasallian Values in Higher Education Luke Salm, FSC, STD1 The topic assigned to these reflections concerns Lasallian values in higher education. To anyone familiar with the history of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools from its seventeenth century origins to its situation in the world today, there are many reasons why it is timely to take a fresh look at the importance of the [De La Salle] Christian Brothers and their educational tradition in our institutions of higher learning. This discussion comes at a time when the Brothers in our schools at every level, but especially in the tertiary institutions, are no longer as predominant among the faculty and administrators as they once were. In fact, it no longer seems possible to think of many of our schools as Brothers’ schools; it is more accurate perhaps to call them Lasallian schools. For that reason, in our colleges and universities in particular, there are many among the faculty, students, and staff who seem to feel that the contribution of the Brothers and their Lasallian teaching tradition is an institutional asset that ought not to be lost. One guarantee that the tradition will be handed on is the continued presence of the Brothers in the university and their individual and corporate commitment to it.

  • 2012-13, the Program Now Sponsors 20 Competitive Intercollegiate Teams – Including Eight Teams That Have Been Established Or Re-Established Since 2007 Alone
    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the nationalQuick stage, the Facts Manhattanville and College Athletic Contents Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. More than 325 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2011-12 school year showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. With women’s golf beginning play as a varsity sport in 2012-13, the program now sponsors 20 competitive intercollegiate teams – including eight teams that have been established or re-established since 2007 alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Three teams earned conference regular-season or tournament championships in 2011-12 and two Valiant squads (men’s soccer and men’s golf) made an appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Fifteen of 21 Valiant squads earned berths in their respective conference championships last year, including the third straight title and seventh in 11 seasons for men’s golf. In addition, the men’s hockey, men’s golf and women’s hockey teams all received national rankings over the course of the year. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2011-12 as well, led by All-America selections Eros Olazabal (men’s soccer) and Dan Fiorito (baseball). Manhattanville also boasted three Freedom Conference Players of the Year and two Freedom Rookies of the Year to go with 47 combined All-Conference honorees. In recent years, at least 35 former Valiants have gone on to play their sport professionally either domestically or overseas as well.

    CELEBRATING OUR PROGRESS Annual Report 2016-2017 3 JANUARY 2018 Office of the Cardinal MONTH OF THE HOLY NAME OF JESUS 1011 First Avenue New York, NY 10022 Dear Friends in the Lord: Our Catholic school system continues to thrive thanks to the laudable work of our visionary leaders. Our students are flourishing with the immense devotion of our teachers, principals, administrators, boards, committees, pastors, donors, parents and guardians whose passion is evident in the forward-looking investments that are bolstering our schools. As we work to strengthen the time-honored traditions that define Catholic education, you, our many stakeholders, form the cornerstone of our growth. This year, we witnessed the benefits of technology-infused learning come to fruition. Our classrooms were transformed into state-of-the-art teaching and learning environments and our students were equipped with the tools not only to succeed in their future careers but also, to make meaningful contributions to their communities in accordance with the call of the Gospels. We continue to be blessed with outstanding educators and administrators who are attuned to our students’ needs and are called by the Lord to their extraordinary vocational service. Above all, we witnessed our young men and women grow spiritually as they joyfully embraced a personal relationship with Christ and by their education in the faith. Never more relevant than in today’s world, our Catholic schools are defined by a mission to shape the heart and soul as well as the mind. This year marked a particularly challenging time in our nation as we responded to a series of heartbreaking natural disasters.

You want to play lacrosse in college?” In recent years, college recruiters have accelerated the timeline and created recruiting formulas that are unique to them. The direction of the college lacrosse recruiting process has led to confusion by some, frustration to others and leaves everyone guessing. The intent of this handbook is to present hard facts, dispel the myths, and to promote the essentials. It is important for recruits and their families to understand that you are in charge and it is up to you to find the right fit academically, athletically, socially, and geographically. See the BIG PICTURE! If lacrosse is taken out of the equation; would this be the right school for you? The handbook contains a baseline of facts that all colleges must adhere to and every recruit should know.
