Elements of

Community

A De La Salle education transcends everyday school life, welcoming students and their families to participate in our community. Our students and faculty commit to live in community together through the following three principles:
 

CARE

  1. The needs of others are often placed before our own.

  2. Everyone helps everyone else. One need not to be asked to help. One notices that someone needs help and lends a hand.

  3. We all participate fully in the things we do together.

  4. In Community, we strive to accept everyone for who they are: gifts and talents as well as weaknesses and flaws.

  5. We will do no harm to anyone, physically, emotionally, or spiritually.

 
SUPPORT

  1. We demand the best of each other, academically and socially.

  2. We let no harm, physically, emotionally, or spiritually, come to each other.

  3. We encourage each other to do and be our best in all areas of our lives.

 
RESPECT

  1. Our behavior is based on strong values of truth, justice, love, and respect.

  2. We develop friendships with each other that are inclusive. 

  3. We do not normalize exclusive relationships, including dating. 

  4. We behave toward each other with respect as members of an extended family.

  5. We demand respect from and give respect to everyone.
