Principal's Letter
Welcome to Christian Brothers Academy! As a private, Catholic, coeducational preparatory school CBA has an unrivaled reputation for educational excellence. The school is proud to be part of a 300 year-old, worldwide Lasallian network of schools. Our primary mission is to provide a comprehensive program that facilitates Christian values, academic excellence and the spiritual, cultural, moral and physical development of each student in a structured and supportive environment.

Founded in 1900 on Willow Street in Syracuse, CBA strives to educate the leaders of tomorrow. With the enormous and generous assistance of our alumni, the school has enjoyed much success, enhancement and expansion in recent years. Our dedicated faculty is committed to delivering a thorough and challenging academic foundation that fosters critical thinking, creativity, personal development and self-respect. An extensive campus ministry program, which complements classes in religious studies, offers opportunities for retreat, liturgical and community service experiences. Counselors and support staff help to meet the personal, academic, career and spiritual needs of each student. A variety of athletic and extra- and co-curricular activities on all levels provide opportunities for a well-rounded school experience.

You are invited to become part of the CBA tradition! I look forward to meeting you at the Open House, Entrance Exam, Accepted Students Reception and Visitation Days. In the meantime, do not hesitate to contact the school. CBA staff members are always eager to help you with questions and concerns.

“St. John Baptist de LaSalle, pray for us. Live Jesus in our hearts, forever.”
