Catalyst Schools are Lasallian-inspired communities dedicated to the holistic education of every scholar entrusted to our care. We draw from the rich tradition of Lasallian education — a tradition founded on faith in the potential of every young person, a commitment to justice and peace, and a belief that education transforms lives and communities.
At Catalyst, we teach minds and touch hearts. We prepare our scholars to live lives of leadership, meaning, and purpose, and to build a world that is more just, compassionate, and inclusive.
● We are committed to these cultural values that shape our identity and form our scholars:
● We show profound reverence for each scholar as a unique person
● We foster respectful relationships and build community
● We have high expectations of ourselves and each other, hold ourselves accountable, and deliver high results
● We treat each other the way we want to be treated
● We promote justice and peace
● We serve children living in communities challenged by the effects of discrimination and economic poverty. We understand that each of the communities in which we serve has incredible gifts and whose assets, culture, and heritage hold the promise of a great future.
Catalyst serves scholars living in communities shaped by the effects of systemic discrimination and economic poverty — communities that are also rich in resilience, culture, and hope. We believe education must honor these strengths while unlocking the full potential of each child — academically, socially, emotionally, and physically.
We value the family as each child’s first and most important teacher. Parental involvement is not only welcome at Catalyst — it is essential to a child’s full development.
Our mission is shaped by The Legacy of Lasallian Education — a belief that teaching is a sacred calling, that every young person is worthy of care and high expectations, and that schools must be places of community, transformation, and hope.
