  • Ben's Bells Kind Campus

    Salpointe is a Kind Campus as part of a school-based program affiliated with the local organization Ben’s Bells. The primary goal of Ben’s Bells is to spread intentional kindness to those we encounter on a daily basis whether it be a family member, teacher, boss, or a complete stranger. Being a Kind Campus is an innovative way to immerse students into a culture of kindness on a regular basis.  
  • Character Counts Program

    Salpointe is a member of the CHARACTER COUNTS! Coalition, a comprehensive and effective youth development program. We have integrated the Six Pillars of Character (Trust, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship) into every aspect of our school in support of our Lancer Values and the Gospel message. How do we integrate CHARACTER COUNTS? Through weekly commentaries read during homeroom announcements, teachers utilizing posters in the classroom, references made within lesson plans, and the Six Pillars being the benchmark for the disciplinary program.

  • Letter Regarding Fr. Edgar Lopez - April 17, 2024

    April 17, 2024

    Dear Salpointe Community,

    We have received an allegation of sexual misconduct with a minor against Fr. Edgar Lopez, O. Carm. The alleged abuse is reported to have taken place over ten years ago in another state. The alleged abuse is not in any way related to Salpointe Catholic High School or Fr. Lopez’s ministry within the Diocese of Tucson.

    In law as well as in our Catholic Church’s teaching, a person is presumed innocent until there is proof of guilt.  At present, there is only an allegation, which has been reported to law enforcement and is currently under investigation. Salpointe Catholic High School, the Carmelite Order, and the Diocese of Tucson are committed to the prevention of sexual misconduct with minors and to responding to such allegations. Salpointe Catholic High School students, parents, and supporters should be aware that we take all allegations very seriously. Fr. Lopez has been removed from public ministry and relieved of his employment at Salpointe Catholic High School pending further investigation of this matter. Law enforcement here in Tucson, as well as at the location of the alleged abuse, have been notified.

    Salpointe Catholic High School, the Carmelite Order and the Diocese of Tucson, always encourage any victim-survivors of sexual abuse to come forward. The Survivor Outreach Coordinator for the Carmelite Order is Mr. Jorge Mora at jmora@carmelites.net or 630-929-4040. The Diocese of Tucson abuse reporting hotline is (520) 838-2567 or (520) 838-2513. 

    Very Sincerely,

    Mrs. Kay Sullivan  Mrs. Ardemis Martin

    President                   Principal
