Leadership's Welcome

At Salesian College Preparatory, we educate in order to impact the young person holistically. We believe that the young thrive in an environment rooted in experiential learning. We intentionally create in Salesian College Preparatory a HOME in which students feel safe and secure and experience a strong sense of belonging and welcoming; a SCHOOL which enables them to learn the lessons of life and expand their intellectual horizons; a CHURCH where the young are challenged in the name of and with the spirit of the Gospel of Jesus to seek meaning and purpose in their lives and to properly set their moral compass; and, a PLAYGROUND where they can interact and interrelate in a friendly and meaningful way to one another and experience joy. These four experiences are the components of the teaching and learning that permeate all we do at Salesian College Preparatory.

As you find out more about Salesian College Preparatory, you will undoubtedly experience the following:

• a school size of 400+ students with a classroom average of 15 students per teacher;

At Salesian College Preparatory, we take to heart those interconnected experiences of home, school, church, and playground. We believe that they offer all students an opportunity to find their own place to shine and to grow as young leaders. It is the nurturing of our students and their  experiences in a caring and supportive environment that makes us unique. We are excited to share that uniqueness with all those interested in Salesian College Preparatory.
