Parent Resource: Using Pear Deck
Parents, you may notice that many of your student’s teachers are using Pear Deck as a tool to help facilitate engagement and learning in the remote classroom. You may see your student working in Pear Deck, and if need to assist with their assignment, here is a helpful guide for you in
English and
Spanish.

The deadline for submission is Sunday February 14, 2021. Payment and design must be completed before we can accept the tribute for the yearbook.

Students, please do not park in the Weight Room parking lot, as this lot is designated for our coaches. Parking is available in the QB Club lot. Thank you for your cooperation.
Spectators at Winter Sports
As our winter sports begin (basketball and soccer), please understand that the recommendation from the AIA Sports Medicine Advisory Committee is not to allow spectators at these events. We will adhere to this recommendation and if the health metrics improve, we will make adjustments. In the meantime, we are very fortunate to have cameras in our gym and stadium, and all of our home games can be viewed live streamed through the NFHS Network.
Log onto
www.nfhsnetwork.com. Type in Salpointe Catholic at the top of the page. It will take you to our page and have a list of our events that are being live streamed. Click on the game you want to watch and subscribe. It is $10.99 per month or $69.99 for the year. We look forward to watching our student-athletes compete!
