DeSales MapGreetings!  

How close is DeSales to your neck of the woods?  Using the world wide web, we have scientifically determined that DeSales is closer than you think!
 
We took a sampling of high-traffic locations in the city and plotted them on Google maps to come up with some estimated driving times.  Turns out, it'll take you less than 20 minutes to pay a visit to DeSales High School from locations all over town.
 
And that's good to know, especially with Open House just down the road on November 21!
 
Driving times to DeSales:
12 minutes from Bardstown Road (Watterson Expy)
13 minutes from Bellarmine University
15 minutes from Breckenridge Lane
16 minutes from Norton Downtown Hospital
18 minutes from Bardstown Road (Gene Snyder)

Benefit Feast Menu SurveyIt's What's for Dinner
Beef or chicken?  How about salmon or pork loin?  We want your feedback as we plan our menu for the 2011 Benefit Feast Dinner Auction in January.  After offering a different entree at the event each year since it began in 2005, the 7th Annual gala for the first time will provide two menu options for patrons when registering.
 
We're also collecting votes for your favorite dessert, too, with choices like cheesecake, appie pie, and chocolate ganache cake.  Take a minute to tell us what you prefer and then be sure to join us on January 29th for this delicious event!
 
DeSales "D"Welcome New Teachers 
Along with our 102 freshman students, DeSales would like to take a moment to welcome a few "freshman" faculty to the building as well.
 
New to our staff this year are Ms. Jane Cox (English), Mr. Stan DeVoogd (Spanish), Mrs. Angie Kleine-Kracht (English/Math), and Mr. Kevin Sansbury (Social Studies).  We are delighted to have these new additions to the DeSales Family!
 
DeSales Day at the DownsWe're Off to the Races!
The second "DeSales Day at the Downs" will take place on Saturday, November 27, during the Fall Meet at Churchill Downs.  The event is hosted by the Alumni Association.  All are welcome to attend.
