De La Salle High School´s commitment to nurture the spiritual, emotional, and academic growth of every student is evident in this first phase of a 20-year strategic plan. The 20,250-sq.-ft. Student Center provides a focal point of arrival on a campus, which previously lacked a front door.

Its distinctive facade captures the attention of drivers on the adjacent thoroughfare. Brick walls, exposed trusses, and polished concrete floors complete the durable, raw, masculine appeal of the building´s interior.

“Prior to developing our strategic plan and building the Student Center, our facilities dictated programming to the school. Now, the school’s programming is enhanced by its facilities,” said De La Salle Principal Brother Chris Brady. “The Student Center supports our dining, assembly, and liturgical services. The new space is more conducive to a prayerful atmosphere.”
