If you already decided to send your children to De La Salle Catholic school , it

means you are caring enough about your students .But be careful of few mean parents who volunteer at school and abuse their roles , instead of showing disciplines and manners , they show totally the

Opposite !

Despite my love and respect of certain teachers, it is not enough to rate this school high or recommend it to any one.  The principal is a very cold, non caring human being that made life there that much more difficult.  The communication is non existent between school and parent.  They do not have sympathy towards families that have mom and dad in different house holds.  They do not know how to organize in a way to take that in consideration in regards to tuition, service hours, or events were only a certain number of people are allowed per student (example..8th grade dance and Christmas pageant).  There has been serious issues at the school that can effect the welfare of our children, and the principal turns the other way instead of dealing with it.  My daughter was approached by a homeless man inside the church during mass practice. He started asking her personal questions.  When I questioned what was going to be done with it, the response from the principal was, " I do not feel it's necessary to inform other parents because it may just be a one time deal. We are not calling the police because the guy probably moved on" This was the level of concern the principal had!  Other incidences from other students include bullying, cyber bullying, and even bullying of teachers.  Not one time did the school address any of these issues.  If you are concern for your child's safety, do not send them here! The teachers that my daughter had were great and caring, but at the end of the day, there is only so much they are able to do.  This school is over priced for the activities in provides.  I have heard of other schools doing so much more for the students.  This school is ran by some one who does not go above and beyond for the students. She hardly ever seems to even by happy to be there.

TERRIBLE STAY AWAY! This school go more downhill every year. With this extremely young and inexperienced principal things continue to get worse. This school is reactive not proactive when it comes to discipline and the teachers, principal, and even the overly dramatic nurse often yell at students and parents trying to exercise their authority. I am extremely disappointed in this school and they do not show any "Catholic" behavior at all.
