Our incredible alumni network—more than 20,000 strong—is an invaluable resource. We invite you to take advantage of the many ways to stay connected.
De La Salle Alumni know where home is. Though we come from various backgrounds, have traveled down unique career paths, and represent nearly every neighborhood of this city, what unites us all is the same institution that has successfully prepared us for the future: De La Salle Institute.

Campus tours are generally available on M-F from 9am-3pm. Those wishing to talk to teachers are best advised to plan for a 2:45 arrival time, right before our students are released for the day.

Anyone entering campus will be required to check-in at the security desk and provide a valid I.D. for entry during school hours.

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, Dean of Social Sciences, 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.
