LA TROUPE DE LA SALLE’S FINAL PERFORMANCE, MONDAY, APRIL 3rd

SCHEDULING FOR RETURNING STUDENTS
Students are soon to begin the process of scheduling courses for the 2017-18 school year.  On Tuesday, April 4^th, we will be holding level assemblies with the 9^th, 10^th, and 11^th graders to discuss possible electives.  The first “draft” of your child’s schedule will be sent home with your child on Friday, April 7^th.  Please be on the lookout for our scheduling timeline, which will be posted to edline next week and which will include further information and deadlines.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY INDUCTION CEREMONY, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5th
Our National Honor Societies will induct their newest members and will recognize their entire memberships on Wednesday, April 5^th, at 7:00 pm in our cafeteria.  This is a mandatory event for all members of our honor societies (NHS, French, Spanish, English, Mu Alpha Theta, Science, Quill and Scroll, and the Junior Classical League), and parents are encouraged to attend.   Dress is shirt and tie for boys and similarly appropriate attire for girls.  Each child will be recognized at this event.

CAREER DAY FOR SENIORS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 12th
We are again pleased to provide our seniors with an opportunity to interact with De La Salle alumni from a variety of careers on this day.  The morning ends with a college panel of recently graduated De La Salle students currently enrolled in various colleges, and our seniors have found this event very beneficial.  The day will end with our Lenten Prayer Service.

EASTER HOLIDAYS:  EARLY DISMISSAL AND SCHOOL CLOSED
Friendly reminder that our Easter Holidays are approaching.  We will have our Lenten Prayer Service on Wednesday, April 12^th, and an early dismissal for students at approximately 12:00 pm on this day.  School will be closed on Thursday, April 13^th through Monday, April 17^th, and we will resume classes at the normal time on Tuesday, the 18^th.

ACT PREPARATION COURSE, MAY 25th – JUNE 8th
We are pleased to announce that De La Salle will again offer an ACT Preparation Course in the weeks leading up to the June ACT date.  All rising juniors and seniors are invited to participate.  Mr. Hussein Dossaji will lead the session, and the cost is $300.00 per student.   Students who took this course last year found it tremendously beneficial.

REMINDERS
Registration for next school year was held last week.  If you have not yet registered your child for the upcoming school year, please contact our finance office immediately to do so.   This will ensure your child’s spot in next year’s class.

Many important events are right around the corner in May, including the Athletic Awards Banquet on Thursday, May 4^th, and the Senior Awards Breakfast on Saturday, May 6^th.  Please continually check our website and our calendar to stay abreast of all upcoming events.

 
As always, we thank you for entrusting your children to us, and we wish you and your child a strong finish to the school year. We hope to see you at one or more of the many events over the next two months in which we honor our students and their successes.

Take care, and may God bless you and yours.

Sincerely,

Paul Kelly, ‘83

“Your faith should be for you a light which guides you in all things, and a shining light for those whom you instruct, to lead them on the path to heaven.”  (Meditation No. 178.1)

President’s Page: March Apostolic and Community Events

April 4, 2017

May this communication find you and your families doing well as we approach the most holy time of the year for Christians—Easter.  As is the case every month when I sit down to compose these “looks back” at the previous month, I compile “all good things De La Salle” that have taken place during that particular month.  However, for this particular “look back” at March 2017, in honor of the Easter holiday on the horizon, I will focus on two areas only; namely, the apostolic and community events that shaped the month.

I chose St. John Baptist de La Salle’s Meditation No. 178.1 above specifically because it lies at the heart of the Lasallian Lenten reflection which former faculty member Brother Michael Livaudais, FSC offered to the adult members of our school community here at De La Salle on the evening of Thursday, March 16.  Those alumni, faculty, former faculty, and administrators who attended Brother Michael’s reflection were privileged to be taken on a journey back to the founding of the Brothers of the Christian Schools.  What I personally found most compelling about Brother Michael’s reflection and what I shared with our faculty members at our March 22 faculty meeting was his reminder that instructors at Lasallian schools are assumed to be excellent in what they do in the classroom and in co-curriculars.  We would expect nothing less in a school named for the patron saint of teachers.  However, when interacting with students in and out of the classroom, teachers at De La Salle should always be asking themselves the most important question; namely, “How am I doing in the relationship and salvation business?”

On March 18, the Saturday after Brother Michael’s reflection, we had a wonderful event here at De La Salle that focused on both the “relationship and salvation business.”  This event was our Sophomore Prayer Breakfast, and it was held in our school cafeteria.  All sophomores are required to attend, and sophomores were accompanied by their mothers or mother figures.  Many faculty members and administrators also attended.  After brief opening remarks and grace before meals from me and a sophomore and his mother, everyone enjoyed a delicious breakfast.  Then everyone was treated to a moving talk from our principal, Paul Kelly, about the blessings our mothers are to us.  This was only the second year of the event, but it has already become extremely important to our school community.  We all look forward to the blessings we will receive from future Sophomore Prayer Breakfasts.

Nearly two weeks after our visitors walked in our front doors to enjoy the St. Joseph Altar, we had twelve local priests who walked in our front doors on Friday, March 31 for another very special reason.  They were here at our invitation to offer the sacrament of reconciliation to our entire student body (Catholic and non-Catholic alike) from 10:15-11:35 a.m.  This was our second year of making this powerful experience available to our entire student body, and we look forward to having it annually.  Of course, we are so thankful to the twelve priests who made the time to be here. Many thanks go to our campus minister, Tony Behan, for his coordination of the experience for our students.As the cafeteria was being broken down after the Sophomore Prayer Breakfast, our school lobby was being transformed on Sunday, April 19 to host a St. Joseph Altar on Monday, March 20.  Thanks to the overall coordination of the effort by our school’s registrar, Marilyn D’Antoni, we have had for twelve years now a beautiful altar to honor St. Joseph, whose blessings we call upon every day at De La Salle.  This altar was viewed and enjoyed throughout the day not only by our own school community members but also by dozens and dozens of visitors who walked in our front doors.

On the evening before I traveled with hundreds of others to attend the state championship basketball game, I had the privilege to attend an event at Rock ‘N Bowl for the 50 year anniversary class of 1967.  I truly enjoy events when I can meet new members of the Cavalier community, and this event gave me yet another opportunity to do just that.  I look forward to the next time this group will gather, and that will be here at De La Salle to celebrate Founder’s Day on Friday, May 12.Speaking of an experience for our students–and for everyone associated with De La Salle High School–we were all passengers on an incredible ride of a season for our boys’ basketball team.  For the first time since 1986, our boys’ basketball team brought the state championship trophy back to 5300 St. Charles Avenue.  And for those who witnessed the semi-final and championship games, they literally had to get in a car and travel to Lake Charles, Louisiana to cheer on our Cavaliers.  It was a wonderful and memorable time for everyone.  And after the championship was won on that Saturday afternoon, March 11, and after the team walked out of the arena to the cheers of hundreds of waiting fans, it was a privilege to witness the hundreds of fans and the team all gather together to sing our alma mater.

I had the privilege to have lunch last Monday, March 27 on the Northshore with the retired Brothers living in community at St. Paul’s School in Covington.  I have been looking forward to doing this for a while, and I look forward to doing so more often going forward.  I had not met most of the Brothers there, and our time together gave us all the opportunity to spend some time and become better acquainted.Whenever possible, we enjoy hosting events for alumni here at De La Salle.  Being here allows alumni to reconnect with each other in a special way at their alma mater where so many memories were made.  We hosted such an event recently on Friday, March 24–the Alumni Crawfest. This is a new event for alumni and their families, and all those who attended had a great time. Thank you if you were in that number.

Looking ahead a bit into April, I mention an event that will occur on Friday, April 21.  This is our Board of Regents’ Dinner–our signature, philanthropic event of the year at which we celebrate “all good things De La Salle.”  This event is held at The Ritz-Carlton Hotel, and the generous philanthropy of those who attend make it financially possible for De La Salle to continue our march in excellence.  If you would like more information about the event, please contact Ann Heslin in the Advancement Office at 504-503-7543 or email her at advancement@delasallenoila.com.

Looking ahead into the month of May, I mention an event about which our school community is very excited; namely, Food Truck Friday which will take place here at De La Salle on May 19.  All members of the Cavalier school community are invited to attend along with anyone in the city who simply wants to have a good time.  During Food Truck Friday, we will also draw the name of the lucky luxury raffle winner of the beautiful 1.64 carat diamond earrings.  If you are interested in purchasing one or more raffle tickets, please click here for more information.

In conclusion, at this year’s Board of Regents’ Dinner, we are extremely grateful to have the privilege of honoring Dr. Warren Caire, AFSC.  Dr. Caire will be retiring at the conclusion of this school year after having served De La Salle High School with excellence, devotion, and selflessness for 55 years.  Looking back at the quote that began this communication, Dr. Caire has been a “shining light” in every way not only for thousands of Cavalier alumni but also for the hundreds of faculty and staff members with whom he has served.  We have been so blessed by his service to De La Salle, and St. John Baptist de La Salle would be so pleased by his 55 years of excellent, devoted, and selfless service.

St. John Baptist de La Salle, pray for us.

Live, Jesus, in our hearts, forever.

In Him,

Michael Giambelluca

Parents:

We have begun the scheduling process for your student for the 2017-18 academic year.  Monday, April 10^th, your student was handed a listing of his or her tracked classes for next year, as well as a listing of his or her elective choices (electives are available to 9^th through 11^th graders).

Please visit with your child to discuss his or her elective choices and to review course placement.  This is a very tentative and early version of your student’s schedule, and I have included the scheduling timeline moving forward.  As you can see, you will be asked to “sign off” on your child’s final schedule near the end of the month.

A few reminders:

1. Students are permitted to move “up” in track (i.e., from track 3 to honors) only if they have achieved the grade of A in that subject this year and with subsequent teacher approval.
2. Students are not permitted to continue in honors or AP courses if they have achieved a semester grade of D or F in that subject area this year.
3. All courses depend on course enrollment numbers and teacher availability, and many scheduled classes may not “fit” into your student’s final schedule (our schedulers work diligently to ensure the best possible schedule for your student).
4. Final schedules are mailed home near the end of June; please be sure to read carefully the attached letter in that mailout regarding schedules and timelines.

All questions about tracking should be directed to your student’s current teachers.  All questions regarding electives and the scheduling process should be directed to the grade level schedulers listed in the timeline below.

We look forward to working with you and your student to make this process as seamless and transparent as possible.

Thank you, and have a wonderful Easter holiday.

Sincerely,

Paul Kelly
Principal

“We have been truly blessed to have Father Michael serve as our campus chaplain.  His love of our students is evident, and he unfailingly participates in our masses, prayer services, retreats, and award ceremonies.  He works very hard to connect his message to our students.” –Principal, Paul Kelly ’83

In honor of Holy Week, De La Salle believed that it would be most appropriate to spotlight our campus chaplain, Father Michael Schneller. Father Michael graciously wrote a brief biography for us. Happy Easter, Cavaliers.

I am the oldest of six children born in New Orleans.  I attended St. Francis Xavier Elementary School, Metairie, and graduated from St. Aloysius High School, New Orleans. During those years, I began discerning the call to the priesthood when I was accepted as a seminarian at St. Joseph Seminary College. I completed my priestly formation at Notre Dame Seminary in New Orleans where I received Bachelor of Arts and Master of Divinity degrees. I was ordained on June 3, 1972, by the late Archbishop Hannan at St. Louis Cathedral.

After my ordination, I served as a parochial vicar at St. Raphael the Archangel Parish, now Transfiguration of The Lord, in New Orleans, and then at St. Joseph in Gretna, and Immaculate Heart of Mary, New Orleans. In 1981 Archbishop Hannan appointed me to my first pastorate at St. Anselm in Madisonville. In the following years, I have served as pastor of Resurrection of Our Lord in New Orleans East, Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Belle Chasse, St. Ann Church and National Shrine in Metairie, Our Lady of the Lake in Mandeville and presently serving as pastor of St. Francis of Assisi Parish in Uptown New Orleans since 2013. I love walking through this Uptown neighborhood and cycling around Audubon Park and on the levee of the Mississippi River.

Because of the proximity of the De La Salle High School campus, Archbishop Aymond asked me to serve as chaplain at De La Salle. I have had the privilege to serve in various ministries, organizations, and committees these past forty-five years. I have always enjoyed a ministerial love affair with the folks who live in the parishes of the Archdiocese of New Orleans.

Serving as a high school chaplain is not a new ministry for me. However, being a full-time pastor and the only priest in the parish limits my participation to a priestly presence at school liturgies, retreats, and selected school events. Participating in these events has provided me an opportunity to learn about the five core principles of a Lasallian education. The Cavalier student body is a truly authentic reflection of the social, ethnic, cultural and religious complexion of the City of New Orleans. I find this both a challenge and a gift. Being with these young students energizes my priestly ministry.

Looking Toward Easter: On the evening of Holy Thursday, Lent ends and the “Triduum” (meaning a space of three days) begins. On all high festival days, the church counts a day in the same way as the Jewish people count days and festivals; that is, from sundown to sundown. Thus, the Triduum consists of three twenty-four-hour periods that stretch over four calendars days.

I find it interesting that at Christmas most stores and restaurants close for the day, with only essential services remaining open. At Easter, however, few stores and other retail establishments close down. Could it be that it is easier to believe in and celebrate the birth of a baby than it is to believe in and celebrate risen Life? Like the early disciples, we must celebrate Jesus’ love for all humanity, but also celebrate our call to love as Jesus did. Who helps you to see and believe in the risen Jesus? The very goodness of our lives will bring others to see and believe and to see and love. Happy Easter!
