CBS Beautification

WITH YOUR SUPPORT, Christian Brothers Foundation is continuing the beautification of Christian Brothers School and its grounds.  Our goal for this project is to create year-round gardens, with trees, benches and pathways to provided a pleasingly aesthetic environment for the you men of CBS.

Benches: Solid, long-lasting teak benches commemorating the memory of or paying tribute to families to friends and students, past  or present.  Then name requested will be inscribed on a plaque attached the the bench.

Crepe Myrtles: Sponsor a colorful crepe myrtle which already brightens the grounds.  The name of each tree sponsor will be listed on a plaque and displayed on the entrance to the breezeway in the front of the school.

Inscribed Paving Stones: Inscribed hexagonal paving stones will create charming pathways on both sides of the building.  These pathways will be named "Falcon Lane" and LaSallian Way."

IN FUTURE PHASES we hope to add a "St. John the Baptist de la Salle Meditation Garden," make other improvements to the parking areas, pond, and Berky's Circle, and irrigate the sports fields.

We hope you'll take a moment to make a lasting contribution to the serenity and charm of the Christian Brothers campus . . .   as a gift , a memorial, or a unique way to insure that you family name is a permanent part of the unique educational environment.

Future Phases of the Beautification Project

 

LASALLIAN WAY WALKWAY These three simple challenging, and inspirations instructions express LaSallian spirituality: ) live in God's presence, and trust to God's providence; 2) read the Gospel and pray always; and 3) work with the poor and work in the community. " Your sons into young men, your men into Christian gentlemen."

FALCON LANE:  The "Falcon" was introduced in 1962 as Christian Brothers School's mascot,.  Just as young falcons soar to great heights; our young men soar to unlimited opportunities infused with all the knowledge of a Christian Brothers education.  They are nurtured by the Brothers and faculty to become exceptional students and are afforded an outstanding curriculum, extracurricular programs, and spiritual renewal.

SAINT JOHN BAPTIST DE LA SALLE MEDITATION GARDEN  De La Salle (1651 - 1719) founded major religious institute, and Pope Pius XII proclaimed him the patron saint of Christian educators.  De La Salle systematized and put into practice many educational methods considered standard today.  Although his writings are directed to the Brothers, De La Salle's spirituality is relevant for everyone engaged in the spiritual journey of an educator.  Saint John Baptist Del La Salle. Pray for us.  Live, Jesus in our hearts! Forever!
