College-Prep Education

Our graduation requirements are more demanding than most schools in order to assure that each student has the opportunity to prepare for college.

Preparing students for college

As a college-preparatory accredited high school, academic excellence is the trademark of Salpointe Catholic High School. Salpointe’s rigorous, college-preparatory academic program prepares Lancers for college and beyond. Salpointe’s curriculum is a holistic approach to learning which integrates the intellectual, social, physical, spiritual and psychological dimensions of the developing student through a rigorous four-year program.  During that time, the student must successfully complete at least 26 credits for graduation.
