All seniors will participate in a full day class retreat today. Organized by Lasallian Ministry, the retreat helps students gain healthy closure on their high school years. Students should check in to their first hour class for attendance and then go to the Florance Center to board buses for the off-campus retreat location. Students should wear their school uniform and bring a bag lunch. Please contact Peg Hodapp with questions.

DeLaSalle will bring to a close its observance of the 40-day season of Lent with a school-wide prayer service on Thursday. The prayer service, which occurs on Holy Thursday, also marks the beginning of the Easter Triduum, the three holiest days for Catholics, who acknowledge the celebration of the first Eucharist, Christ’s death on the Cross on Good Friday, and the vigil that leads to His Resurrection on Easter Sunday.

The Library will be closed during the school day Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, because ninth grade English classes will be working on a project. This means that students who are in class, study hall, or lunch may not get a pass to the library. The library will reopen for its normal after school hours.
