La Salle Academy Annual Report 2013-2014
President’s Letter
Dear Friends,
On September 14, 2013, we celebrated the completion of ten successful years at La Salle
Academy with a Gala at Chestnut Hill College. We are LSA Proud. We have discovered, and
acknowledged at the event, that La Salle Academy is more than a mission; it is a miracle
everyday. We spent the year highlighting our PROUDest moments and celebrating the
wonderful community we have created in the past decade. This feeling is a part of La Salle
Academy every day. Our current students are thriving, as demonstrated through standardized test scores,
as well as in their social, emotional and spiritual lives. Our graduates are excelling; three classes have
graduated high school, and many of them are enrolled in post-secondary education, have joined the military,
or are pursuing employment. We are LSA Proud!
As a Board of Trustees and as a staff, we remain clear about, and faithful to, our mission of educating
students whose potential is limited by financial, social, academic or emotional challenges, and whose
parents and guardians desire, but cannot afford a Catholic education. The average yearly income for a
family of four is $19,000; 62% of our students are from a single-parent family, 8% live with a grandparent or
with another family member, and all of our families qualify for the Federal Free Lunch Program. With the
commitment of our Board, and your help and donations, La Salle Academy provides an excellent education
within an Extended Day and Year model with a very modest tuition of $250 a year.
As I reflect on the year, I think of what Child Advocate and Author Marian Wright Edelman said, “Education
is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and world better than you found
it.” The La Salle Academy community has been built through the unwavering kindness and support of our
generous Board of Trustees, benefactors and donors, who give our students the opportunity to truly make
a difference not only in themselves, but in their own families and communities. Your time, talent and treasure
give our students the educational opportunity to break the cycle of generational poverty, and I can truly say
that we are making a difference in the lives of so many who would not otherwise have the chance. Together
we will leave the world better than we found it.
Thank you for your investment in our students and their dreams. We are LSA Proud!
Sister Jeanne McGowan, SSJ

Chairman’s Letter
Dear Friends,
I have the pleasure of saying the same things to you again this year: thank you for your time,
your involvement, your energy and your love of La Salle Academy. Our Board of Trustees
offers you our most sincere gratitude for your generous support. Your generosity enables us
to continue our efforts to provide a values-based Catholic education to our students facing
the inner city struggles of poverty, addiction, job loss and low graduation rates. It is because
of your generosity that La Salle Academy can help our students of many faiths overcome
these obstacles and become productive and successful citizens in whatever life path they follow.
Your financial support has helped us to have an exceptional year, but our school is never content to rest on
past success. LSA continues to innovate and evolve to meet the challenges our students face. We
celebrated a Ten Year Gala that showcased La Salle Academy students, graduates and mission. We met
and exceeded our Development goals, our students improved their personal standardized test scores, our
teachers and students responded remarkably well to RtII, a national program that enables teachers to use
data to effectively drive instruction and improve learning using a multi-tiered system of support in grade
schools. In addition, our high school graduation rate is approaching 90%. After three graduating classes
from high school, close to 50% of our graduates are pursuing various forms of higher education, 10% of
our graduates are serving in the U.S. Military, approximately 25% are in the workforce and the remainder
are pursuing employment.
La Salle Academy continues to stand out as an exceptional school surrounded by an exceptional community.
We continue to cultivate the support of donors who have consistently given each and every year and who
help us reach our operating budget each year since we opened our doors. You have provided an amazing
education to children who, without your generosity, would be lost in a broken public school system. La
Salle Academy stands as a beacon in the transformation of Urban Education.
The education provided by La Salle Academy establishes the strong educational foundation that our
students need. At the heart of our community lies the belief that a quality, values-based education will break
the cycle of poverty.
Thank you for believing in our work, in our community and in our students. Please come visit our unique
school to see how your involvement makes a lasting impact, one student at a time. Come see what La Salle
Academy Proud looks like in action.
With sincere gratitude,
Jim Lynch
Chairman of the Board of Trustees

Principal’s Letter
Dear Friends,
Reflecting back on the 2013-2014 school year, I am extremely PROUD of all we have
accomplished. Our students continue to grow academically, socially, faithfully and confidently.
They have excelled academically with the help of the Response to Instruction and Intervention
(RtII) program, a national framework that enables teachers to use data to effectively drive
instruction and improve learning using a multi-tiered system of support. The Character
Education and Peer Mediation programs help our students continue to carry out the Five
Goals. At La Salle Academy, we call this individualized program WIN for What I Need. At our
WIN time, students receive additional reading remediation, support or enrichment, helping us to achieve
our Middle States goal of increasing Terra Nova NCE scores well within the allotted timeline. I am PROUD
that this past year again saw strong increases in our students’ standardized test scores. The chart below
notes the incredible progress our students have made throughout their years at LSA. We celebrated our
surprise second place finish in the CYO basketball playoffs, our school-wide Fine Arts Festival and our
successful graduating class. Our eighth grade graduating class of 2014 is well on their way to achieving
their next goal of being counted among the high school graduating class of 2018. Each friend, donor and
supporter of La Salle Academy makes such an impact on each and every one of our students, and I am
continuously grateful for those who make our proud moments and community possible.
One of my favorite books is WONDER by R.J. Palacio and a great quote from that book is, “Your deeds are
your monuments. Build with memories instead of stone.” Thank you for building monumental memories for
our students.
This graph documents the growth of three students who began at a high, medium or
low academic level and who attended La Salle Academy for all six years. The CSI is
the overall Cognitive Skills Index score that relates to generalized cognitive abilities.
Sincerely,
Teresa Diamond
Proud Principal of La Salle Academy
Please note the remarkable improvement of the CSI scores. The student who began
with a 68 CSI graduated with a CSI of 86, an 18 point improvement. It is clear that La
Salle Academy continues to assist students at all levels to reach their highest academic
potential. These results are representative of all our students and have been consistent
with each graduating class. La Salle Academy’s impact grows exponentially with each
of our students.

La Salle Academy Annual Report 2013-2014
10 Year Anniversary Gala
A Decade of Success
A Night to Remember
More than a Mission
A Miracle Every Day
A School, A Mission, A People to be Proud of!
On September 14, 2013, we celebrated a decade of success at the La Salle Academy 10th
Anniversary Gala at Chestnut Hill College. The Gala marked a time to celebrate our school, our
model, our Board of Trustees, our dedicated benefactors and our mission. With the help of our
wonderful, hard-working Event Committee, the Gala was truly a night to remember. La Salle
Academy was able to surpass our Ten Year Gala goals for donations raised and for people
attended. We are extremely PROUD of what our students and graduates have achieved thus far.
Yet, we must remember all of the sustained donations, consistent energy and love it takes to keep
La Salle Academy so strong for many decades to come. Our staff acknowledges the courage it
takes for our students to walk through our doors every day, especially in July. Thank you for
generously lifting up our students and giving them the opportunity to dream big. Thank you to all
who have supported our community, and for confirming that La Salle Academy is more than a
mission, it is a miracle every day.
