De La Salle | Brothers of the Christian Schools 

"Touching Hearts…Teaching Minds"

Mission

The Lasallian Mission is to give a human and Christian education to the young, especially the poor, according to the ministry which the Catholic Church has entrusted to it.

The Brothers of the Christian Schools was established to further, in the United States and Toronto Region, the Lasallian mission and continue the vision of their founder, St. John Baptist de La Salle.

Profile

From its foundation, our Institute has defined itself as being called by God to the educational service of the poor. In the past as now, our Institute has always concerned itself and continues to concern itself with this service. It is closely tied to social, cultural and economic contexts, which vary greatly from country to country where our Institute is present.

The Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools is clearly and patently aware of the urgent need that children, young people and adults have for education. Given this educational need we are committed in the following four areas where the need is particularly urgent: The Rights of the Child; Educational Renewal; Explicit Proclamation of the Faith; Lasallian Presence in Multi-Religious Societies.

We are also aware that our educational service of the poor cannot presume to solve all the problems of poverty in the world, but only specifically those which are related to education. For this reason we consider it important to maintain relations and collaborate with other organizations and other agencies (political, social, and religious) that work to resolve urgent problems regarding the poor at the local, regional and international level.

Results

Today, there are over 70,000 Lasallian partners in almost a thousand educational ministries which span 82 countries around the globe.

In our region alone, we serve nearly 43,000 students with 53 schools and 3,000 teachers. In accordance with our vision to serve the needs of the poor, 10.3% of our students receive academic-based financial aid and an overwhelming 82.1% receive need-based financial aid.
