LaSalle School - Albany

A big thank you to CanCode Communities for partnering with our youth and providing engaging opportunities to learn coding, game development, and internet safety skills. Through hands-on activities and interactive learning experiences, our students gained valuable knowledge in technology, problem-solving, creativity, and responsible digital citizenship. Programs like these help empower young people with the skills and confidence they need to succeed in an increasingly digital world. Thank you CanCode Communities!

Our Ulster County therapy team had a wonderful time at the annual NSAW Conference in NYC! They connected with social workers, educators, and advocates who are all passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of youth and families in our communities.

Last Thursday, LaSalle staff members participated in the CDPHP Workforce Challenge. Great time to share together for this great community event! Special guest, St. Baptist John De LaSalle

What an incredible Founders Week! We kicked off the week by celebrating one of our students, Najari, who was honored at the Rotary Youth Recognition Luncheon after being selected by staff for his commitment, perseverance, and dedication to success. We are so proud of him!

Throughout the week, staff and students came together to create lasting memories, from beautifying our campus and participating in a Labyrinth walk, to enjoying a therapeutic Lasallian paint n’ sip activity. We wrapped up the week with our annual staff and student recognition awards celebration.

We are incredibly proud of all of our staff and students and everything they continue to accomplish. A special congratulations goes to Onyia McGill, our 2026 Educator of the Year, recognized for her continued dedication, compassion, and commitment to the students and mission of LaSalle. Way to go Onyia!

Another amazing Founders Week is officially in the books!

Ending Teacher Appreciation Week with some laughs, togetherness and friendly competition🎳. We’re so grateful for our LaSalle educators and the care, dedication, and heart they bring to our students every day. Thank you to all educators for everything you do!

Thank you to the educators who show up each day with passion, patience, and purpose, your impact reaches far beyond the classroom. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!

Yesterday we celebrated Joan Healey and her remarkable 25 years of service to the Board of Trustees, including the past 7 years as Board Chair. Joan’s leadership helped guide LaSalle through COVID, strengthening our operations by developing thoughtful processes and procedures, all while keeping the needs of our staff and students at the center of every decision. She always showed up in the moments that mattered most, like serving our students at Thanksgiving dinner each year, always with a smile.

While this is not goodbye, we are deeply grateful for Joan’s time, dedication, and compassion. Her impact on LaSalle will be felt for years to come.

Last night we celebrated our 2026 Basketball Team for another great season! 🏀Whether they played every minute, made big plays, or supported their teammates from the bench, each player played a role in this team’s success. Their hard work, determination, and sportsmanship were on display all season long.

We’re proud of this group, not just for what they accomplished on the court, but for the way they represented LaSalle as teammates and individuals!

Special shoutout to Moscatiello's Italian Restaurant for once again hosting this celebratory event!
