Verbal Communications—We are requesting that all members of our faculty and staff be addressed as Miss, Mrs., or Mr. at school and school functions. We feel that this is a good policy when conducting school business. We will likewise address our parents in this manner. Our students are encouraged to address all adults as Miss, Mrs., or Mr., both in and out of school.

Blackboard Connect-Ed
This year we will again be using the Connect-Ed service school-to-parent communication service that will allow us to send important news throughout the school year. We will be utilizing this service to alert families about school closings and early dismissals. In addition, it will support our ability to reach you immediately in the event of a school emergency. In order for this service to be effective, our database must remain current. Therefore, when you change phone numbers or e-mail addresses, we are asking that you notify the school office.

If you shop at Redners, Weis, Giant, or Weaver, your family could be earning credit for tuition with the PTO Super Saver Program. For every $100 in certificates purchased, your account earns $3 credit toward your child’s tuition for the following year (for use at La Salle Academy or Holy Name High School for 8th grade students). Simply fill out the Super Saver envelope indicating your store card preference, enclose a check to La Salle Supersavers, and turn in the order to the La Salle office. Orders may be sent home with your child or picked up in the office. More complete information on the program will be sent home from the PTO in September.
Donating or Memorializing
If you would like to memorialize a loved one, La Salle provides opportunities to do so. One way that you can memorialize a loved one is by donating to La Salle. We welcome monetary donations, no gift is too small. Please keep in mind that we have a Library Fund, a Science Fund, and a Technology Fund. Please call the school office for details.
