Welcome to the Lasallian Association of New Catholic Educators.
LANCE is a two year service program fashioned after the lives of the Christian Brothers. LANCE participants serve the underprivileged and at-risk youth of Memphis through teaching in the Catholic Schools. Following in the footsteps of the Christian Brothers, our LANCE teachers support each other and grow in their faith through community living during their two years of service.
The Lasallian Mission
St. John Baptist de La Salle, founder of the Brothers of Christian Schools, is the patron saint of teachers. In the tradition of his Christian Brothers, LANCE emphasizes core Lasallian values in its own program mission:
-
Educating the poor and underserved through inspired and excellent teaching;
-
Ensuring caring, individualized attention to each student as a whole person;
-
Regarding teaching as a corporate and communal exercise; and
-
Contributing to the compassion and justice-seeking of each school in which one teaches
