The San Francisco District is a part of the International Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, commonly known as the De La Salle Christian Brothers. Founded in Reims, France in 1680, the De La Salle Christian Brothers is the largest order of religious Brothers in the Roman Catholic Church, and is dedicated exclusively to education, particularly of the poor and disadvantaged. As a part of the worldwide Institute, the District shares in a mission of conducting schools and cooperating in creating educational communities inspired by the vision and traditions of Saint John Baptist de La Salle, Founder of the Christian Brothers and the Church's Patron Saint of All Teachers of Youth. Our schools and educational works are based on core principles which characterize them as uniquely Lasallian. Founded in San Francisco in 1868, the District currently conducts middle and secondary schools and educational ministries in California, Oregon, Washington, and Tijuana, Mexico, as well as Saint Mary's College of California in Moraga.
