Building Manager - New York, United States - De La Salle Academy

Description

Mission:

De La Salle Academy is a private, independent, non-sectarian middle school located in Manhattan. The school's student body includes students from across New York City.

De La Salle is the only private, co-educational, independent school in New York City for academically talented, economically less advantaged students in grades six through eight.

Students and adults commit to living in community through a purposefully rigorous academic curriculum, strong core values, a profound knowledge of self, and a desire to serve the array of communities we represent.
