Lasallian Association Ex-Alumni of Rhodes.

In 1920, eight years after the Italian occupation of Rhodes and the Dodecanese, the government asked the Lasallian Brothers of the Christian schools of Trento Province, to start school activities on the island for the school year 1921-1922.
After the Dodecanese passed over to Greece, the two last Italian Brothers left Rhodes and the Italian school was closed on September 9, 1950.
In 1969, thanks to the positive initiative of some ex-alumni, the Lasallian Association Ex-Alumni of Rhodes was founded and organized its first congress in Rome. A fruitful cooperation between the ex-alumni and the small Catholic community of the island was then started.
There are more than 900 Lasallian schools in the world and they are on every continent. They have 1 million students and 80000 teachers.
