Arts
La Salle Academy has an extensive fine arts program, offering electives and extracurricular activities in music, acting, visual arts, photography, video production, and dance. "La Salle Academy offers its students a unique and demanding secondary school performing arts program. The goal of the program is to empower its students to succeed not only on stage, but to provide them with the confidence to excel in many endeavors with the positive self-image developed through participation in the arts. These outcomes are fostered in a variety of ways. In an effort to provide co-curricular activities that support our academic offerings in the performing arts, La Salle offers its students membership in many after school activities. These performing arts opportunities include participation in: The Internationally Recognized La Salle Players, the La Salle Concert Choir, Men’s and Women’s A Cappella, two sections of Dance Club, and Spün, performance poetry group."
