- Celebrating the support of your school by volunteering your time as a Class Rep
- Staying connected through our social media accounts and Alumni Newsletters

Wall of Heroes
In honor and memory of De La Salle alumni who have served, or are currently serving, in our military, we created a Wall of Heroes in the Toth Foyer. It was unveiled on Veteran’s Day, November 11th, 2009.
Photos & Memorabilia: We seek photos of alumni in uniform and also donations of any military memorabilia items to enhance the Wall of Heroes display. Please contact Mr. John Brogan, Director of Admissions, at broganj@dls.org if you have any materials to contribute.
Help us keep the Wall of Heroes up to date by completing a brief questionnaire with service member information if you are (or know of) alumni who has served or is currently serving in the military.
