History

A (Brief) History of De La Salle Institute De La Salle’s initial champion was Brother Adjutor of Mary who foresaw a school for poor and working class boys: "I made up my mind to leave nothing undone in the direction of fitting the boys of the masses for the battle of life, morally as well as educationally."

In the fall of 2002, De La Salle opened a campus for young women in collaboration with the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Third Order of St. Francis at 1040…
