My experience at Salpointe Catholic High School has been incredible. The school's religious foundation has helped me grow spiritually, and its strong academics have prepared me well for college. I've made amazing friends who feel like family, and the positive energy on campus makes every day enjoyable. Salpointe has given me valuable experiences and lifelong memories.

Salpointe is a great school, it is the best school I've ever been to. The best part about my experience is that the faculty and staff genuinely care about you and your future, and the worst experience is some teachers are very biased and will ruin your day.

If you have a perfect kid with perfect academics, he or she might do well here but if your kid is anything less than perfect, good luck. The fine arts department has clear favoritism. Expect for freshman to get lead roles repeatedly despite their knowledge that some juniors and seniors are trying to...
