La Salle High School Faisalabad

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] School History

Bishop F.B Cialeo, OP. First Bishop of Multan who had requested the La Salle Brothers to run his English medium school in Multan in 1959 felt the need, once he had been transferred to Lyallpur (Faisalabad), to have them start a similar school in the People's Colony where the school now stands.

The La Salle brothers took over in September 1961 when classes 6 to 10 began to function in the present Brothers' Residence, pending the completion of the school building where the school shifted in January 1962 and new entrants to classes 4 and 5 were also admitted. The rolls stood at 196 on January 10, 1962 but numbers increase steadily and with the opening the Nursery Section we soon got into four figures. The figures as on 01-03-2006 were as follows: No. of students on Rol 1728. Besides the eight brothers, forming the present community, the faculty comprises a permanent teaching staff of 83 secular teachers: 30 men and 53 ladies. The minor staff comprises 14 men and 4 ladies.

[edit] Purpose and Aims of the School

La Sallian education recognizes the dignity of man and the potential of each individual whose dignity and potential can bloom if fully nurtured by genuine religion and sound education.

The La Salle Brothers firmly believe in the inalienable right of every person to an education that fits him for productive life in society based on religious values.

La Sallian Education takes into account the whole aggregate of a person's human life: its physical, spirtual, intellectual, moral, individual, domestic and social aspects, in order to elevate and perfect it in accordance with his individual beliefs.
