A NOTE

As a college preparatory school, it is no surprise that La Salle has prepared me academically for college. However, what is more significant is that, through a wide range of opportunities to learn skills like musical art, public presentation, team-based engineering, constructive argumentation, and how to respond to challenges, La Salle has given me the tools to lead a successful and fulfilling life.

Band

La Salle’s highly regarded and comprehensive music program is unmatched among high schools in the Delaware Valley. Over 250 instrumentalists participate in fifteen performing ensembles.

La Salle’s Competition Band and Lab Band consistently receive superior ratings at local and regional jazz competitions. La Salle was awarded First Place at the Cavalcade of Bands Championships in 2013, 2015, 2016, and 2017. In 2023, the Competition Band captured First Place at both the Steel Stacks Jazz Festival and the National Jazz Festival.

Art

The entire fourth floor of Saint Michael Hall is dedicated to the exploration and refinement in the disciplines of Visual Arts. Students get involved in designing and making, as well as ceramics, sculpture, drawing, painting, printmaking, and digital art. With complete studio access, students can work up to their potential and have the opportunity to celebrate their achievements in a number of exhibits. The school year ends with a two-week long Arts Festival that includes music concerts and a student art exhibit.
