Our Fiction into Film students visited the Warner Brothers Studio backlots, where stories jump from page to screen, giving us a sneak peek into the real-world magic of filmmaking. Exploring the backlots and uncovering the history behind a century of cinematic excellence, our students got a front-row seat to how iconic movies and shows are made. This studio tour bridged their literary studies to the dynamic world of Hollywood, allowing them to see firsthand the transformation of stories from the written word to visual spectacles. Each year, this trip lights up the path from fiction to film, enriching their understanding...

We formally invite you to La Salle's first musical production in four years- RIDE THE CYCLONE HIGH SCHOOL EDITION.

La Salle was selected to be one of the first schools in the country to produce the new High School Edition...
