Students Mirror Diversity of East Bay

Whether you are engaged in service, actively participating in different clubs, or carrying yourself with pride, these are not just cornerstones but the very essence of a fulfilling student life experience at Salesian. Your active involvement is what makes our community vibrant and thriving. 

Students actively contribute to their community by organizing impactful events. They plan rallies, school masses, and create an annual Christmas Wonderland for hundreds of children in need. Additionally, attending retreats offers students a chance to reflect, bond with peers, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and spark ambitions. The school's dedicated counselors play a crucial role in this journey, providing students with guidance and support, helping them navigate academic and personal challenges. Through these activities, students not only develop leadership and organizational skills but also cultivate a strong sense of responsibility, empathy and an appreciation for diversity.
