Update from Bill Burkhardt, Admissions Director

The Class of #DLS2020 is filling up quickly, and we look to have another full class for this fall! The enthusiasm is palpable from the incoming students and their families. The reason for that vigor is the focus we have put on building relationships with these young men long before they will sit in their first class. Our focus continues to be on providing opportunities to get to know these young men and their families, while they can explore why De La Salle is the best option for high school. We do this through programs like: • Spring Activities Night on May 20. Students in grades 4-7 enjoy two-hour long workshops exploring interests and courses offered here. • Summer Camps For boys and girls entering grades 3-12. The camps offer academic, athletic, and artistic options for students to improve their skills while meeting current DLS staff and coaches. • Pilot for a Day or Shadowing. Any 7th or 8th grade student may spend the day at De La Salle following around a current freshman. Students may shadow at any time, through June. I encourage you to have your son, grandson, nephew, or neighbor come out to one of these opportunities and see how our commitment to the Lasallian cornerstone of building relationships, sets De La Salle apart from other public, charter, private, and Catholic high schools. This holds true for the student who will be an IB Scholar and the top of his class, and the student who will achieve to his highest level thanks to the support of Mr. Mike Szatkowski and the Academic Support Team.
