Academics
An Invitation From the Principal
Welcome to the Academics page! DeLaSalle strives to provide a challenging, academic curriculum in a college preparatory setting that will prepare students to be successful global citizens in the Twenty-First Century. This section has been created to provide a complete description of DeLaSalle's college prep curriculum, the philosophy of our departments, and the teachers and coursework that drive school curriculum. Academic departments include teachers whose commitment to student success is second to none. Each department's curriculum has been developed to provide students a variety of experiences both advanced and college prep appropriate. As a result of our rigorous curriculum, our students consistently score above the national norm in national testing and advanced placement courses. I encourage you to peruse the DeLaSalle curriculum guide to read about all we offer.
DeLaSalle's Office of Student Services is responsible for curriculum design, course schedules and academic files of all students as well as the transcripts of graduates. If you have questions please contact the Director of Curriculum and Instruction, Merodie Johnson, 612.676.7608.
DeLaSalle's office of Guidance & College Planning also provides students with many services that include both academic support as well as college planning sessions. From one on one meetings, to classroom sessions, to parent information nights the Guidance Department endeavors to provide as much information and guidance as possible to help students with the college application process.
Select one of our academic pages on the right to learn more about what keeps our students coming to school each day. Better yet, we encourage your child to be an Islander for a Day and visit as a shadow spending the day at DeLaSalle experiencing what our curriculum is all about. Please contact the Admissions Office for more information. Your child will appreciate the experience.
Best Regards,
Barry C. Lieske, ASFC
Principal
