"Lasallian" refers to the educational philosophy and practices inspired by Saint John Baptist de La Salle, a French priest who founded the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools in the 17th century. This approach emphasizes a holistic education that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit, focusing on the needs of students and promoting social justice. Lasallian education is characterized by its commitment to accessibility, quality, and the development of a sense of community. Schools and institutions that follow this tradition aim to create a supportive environment where students can grow academically and personally, embodying the values of faith, service, and respect for all.
