Mission Statement
We, a diverse community of teachers, learners, alumni, parents and volunteers,
comprise DeLaSalle High School. Our mission is to serve students from Minneapolis
and surrounding communities who seek a high-quality, values-based, academic
preparation for life. We at DeLaSalle High School fulfill this mission, in part,
by respecting and affirming our heritage as a Catholic High school in the Lasallian
tradition.
Vision Statement
DeLaSalle High School, the only Catholic high school in the city of Minneapolis,
has --for more than a century-- sustained and advanced the educational vision
defined more than three centuries ago by St. John Baptist de La Salle, founder
of the Brothers of the Christian Schools (informally known as the Christian
Brothers).
As demonstrated by the unwavering and enthusiastic commitment to attract students
from various economic levels, academic abilities, racial communities, and ethnic
backgrounds, DeLaSalle High School extends beyond the facilitation of academic
success to the preparation of students to be of service to the local, national,
and global community both during and after their formal education.
DeLaSalle High School, Minneapolis, seeks to create an environment in which
the youth of our urban area are empowered and enabled to create for themselves
and others a functional, literate, safe community.
