We welcome all levels of participation, from attending our monthly meetings to volunteering at events, or simply reading our monthly email updates to stay connected. We encourage you to consider getting involved with PALS, at any capacity you wish, to further enrich your experience at La Salle. All DLS & LSA parents & guardians are welcome.
