You can still help us make a difference

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we’ve surpassed our Day of Giving fundraising goal! But there's still time to make an impact. Join our growing list of supporters and help us continue to make a difference.

Donors who prefer to pay by check can mail their checks to Lacordaire Academy c/o Marissa Klapwald at 155 Lorraine Avenue, Upper Montclair, NJ 07043.

“Lacordaire gave us alumni so much—education, values, friendships, and opportunities—and now it’s our turn to give back. I believe in Lacordaire’s mission,and I want to help keep it strong for today’s students and future generations.”

Marianne Hyzak Ehinger '76

Over a century of success

Your gift celebrates over a century of excellence and supports Lacordaire’s continued success.

Thanks to our founders, the Caldwell Dominicans, thousands of students have been educated in our classrooms, carrying the values of Dominican Catholic pedagogy into their lives and careers. Today, Lacordaire thrives as a leader in primary and secondary liberal arts education, with brand-new state-of-the-art science labs, an award-winning public speaking program, an international travel program, and a track record of students earning admission to top colleges. With your support, we will continue to inspire and educate future generations for years to come.

“Our family’s journey at Lacordaire has been one of incredible support and affirmation. We have been impressed with the quality of the instruction and the people our daughter has met over her three years at Lacordaire. She has been challenged, supported and encouraged to take risks, embrace challenge and exceed her own expectations. We are forever grateful to the Lacordaire team for making our daughter’s high school years a time of tremendous growth and achievement.”
