    The Salpointe Art Club is a place where all students can come and relax. It's a break from challenges going on in students' lives and provides a safe place for them to hang out and express themselves in any creative way they choose. We meet biweekly, with fun activities planned such as painting, sketching, creating and more. We also have a service project every semester, with the goal to use art in a way to improve and put a smile on the faces of the Salpointe Catholic community. All are welcome in this club and we strive to create a place that is friendly and fun for all.
  • Book Club

    Shelly Eutizi, Moderator
    seutizi@salpointe.org

    Some read obsessively, some read to pass the time and some join to motivate themselves to pick up a book. Whatever the reason may be, Book Club members meet every other Friday in the Click Family Library to discuss selected books. Sometimes we write a review, meet an author or evaluate the story, and sometimes it’s just to talk. In addition, the club members plan to attend the Tucson Festival of Books and participate in Young Adult Choices through the International Literacy Association, which allows the club to read and evaluate books that have yet to be published. Whatever the club does, the goal remains the same - discover and enjoy new literature, and spread our love of reading.

    The Kino Teens Club enhances the Salpointe Catholic mission statement of holistic education by affirming the dignity of individuals, encouraging faith and commitment to service and developing awareness of the world community. In Kino Teens we will practice responsibility for the well-being of others by respecting the moral dignity of all the people we encounter. We plan to visit KBI Comedor (soup kitchen) four times a year to help serve food to the deportees in Nogales, Arizona. We help set tables, serve food, clean up and speak to the immigrants about their experiences going across the border both ways. We work with Catholic Community Services to find and help Dreamers gather their documents to apply for citizenship so they can have everything ready when they are asked for it.
