Salesian New Family Handbook 2026-2027

2026-2027 FAMILY HANDBOOK | SALESIAN COLLEGE PREPARATORY

PRINCIPAL’S WELCOME

I officially welcome you to our expansive 21-acre campus, where relationships come first and every visitor is embraced with the warmth and genuine hospitality that define our community.

I’m excited for you to experience firsthand what home, school, church, and playground truly look and feel like in our community. These four pillars shape the spirit of our campus and the way we learn, grow, and support one another. I look forward to personally getting to know you and welcoming you into the community here at Salesian College Preparatory.

Our challenging college preparatory curriculum is designed not only to meet but also to exceed the admission standards of many colleges, including top tier UC’s and CSU’s. Dedicated guidance counselors work patiently with each student to design a course of study rooted in personal interests, talents, culture, and future goals. A highly qualified and distinguished faculty imparts their knowledge, experience, skills, and core values, fostering a learning environment where every student feels seen, supported, and empowered to become leaders of tomorrow and productive global citizens.

Students are encouraged to become actively involved in cultural clubs, visual and performing arts, or service-oriented organizations that enable them to meet new friends, cultivate life-long relationships, and grow in confidence. Students are challenged physically and mentally through a competitive athletic program with several nationally ranked teams. These varied experiences help our students develop an appreciation for others, strengthen collaboration, deepen spirituality, refine leadership skills, and promote good sportsmanship.

I am confident that your time here will be rewarding, inspiring, and transformative, and I look forward to seeing all the ways you will grow, lead, and thrive as part of our Salesian family.

KENNETH FARR II ‘10 VICE PRESIDENT/ PRINCIPAL

PRESIDENT’S WELCOME

Under the charism of St. John Bosco, and with your help, we can provide your student with a college preparatory experience through a HOME that nurtures, a SCHOOL that educates, a CHURCH that welcomes, and a PLAYGROUND where joy abounds and everyone belongs.

Your student is about to embark on a journey to become a Salesian for life; we are in this together! You will find that our faculty, staff, and administration are present throughout our students’ high school journey. You are part of our family now, rich with diversity. We genuinely care about each and every one of our students.

Many great things happen here on campus. We are student-centric and our top priority is creating an unparalleled high school experience for our students.

Perhaps your student will take advantage of our many STEM course offerings in state-of-the-art third-floor labs. Maybe your student will find or further their talent through our outstanding Visual and Performing Arts department. It could be that your student becomes immersed in our literature, social science, or religious studies programs. Perhaps your student will become one of our scholarathletes who competes in a sport as an individual or as part of a team. Maybe your student will sample all of the above.

Rest assured, Salesian will be there every step of the journey, ready to celebrate successes, guide through failures, and prepare each student for what lies ahead.

I look forward to meeting your student and your family. Let the Salesian journey begin!

STEPHEN PEZZOLA ’74 PRESIDENT

COUNSELING AND ADVISING

The academic advising team continues to support and counsel students as they navigate scheduling in subsequent years, standardized testing, and credit fulfillment.

Personal Counseling and Wellness Center

The many changes during high school can cause challenges that may be resolved if explored in a nonjudgmental environment. Our personal counselors are available to students who are experiencing difficulties, including adjustment challenges, issues with peers, or stress with school. Our staff is available to offer support and guide students through the challenges of adolescence.

Students can request to visit with one of the personal counselors, or they may be referred by faculty, staff, or parents. While opportunities for counseling are available to all students, it is completely voluntary. In addition to personal counseling, there is a Wellness Center on campus intended to aid in early interventions for students experiencing social, emotional, or mental health challenges that affect learning in the classroom. It provides students with a safe, quiet, and calming space to reduce stress and anxiety.

Student Success Teams and Individualized Learning Plans

STUDENT SOCIAL EXCELLENCE

Salesian College Preparatory holds high expectations for student behavior and accountability rooted in respect, compassion, and community.

Our approach to discipline prioritizes restoration over punishment, healing over exclusion, and growth over judgment. Grounded in the Salesian educational tradition and informed by trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and growth-oriented principles, we seek to educate the whole person through reason, religion, and loving kindness.

Please review the complete Code of Student Social Excellence in the Student-Family Handbook prior to the start of school.

CODE OF STUDENT BEHAVIOR

Rooted in the educational vision of Saint John Bosco, the goal of discipline at Salesian College Preparatory is the formation of self-discipline through the principles of the Salesian Preventive System: reason, religion, and loving-kindness. Students are guided and supported in developing sound judgment, personal responsibility, and integrity.

Students represent Salesian College Preparatory in all settings, both on and off campus, contributing to the school’s reputation and reflecting its core values. Students are therefore expected to demonstrate respect, courtesy, and compassion toward faculty, staff, and peers, and to adhere to the policies and expectations established by the school.

ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Cell Phone Usage (including voice, text messaging, use of the camera, or social media):

Students may NOT use cellular phones during class unless instructed to do so by a faculty member.

Please keep in mind the following in regard to the use of students’ personal cell phones:

• When a teacher approves cell phone use as an educational tool, students are expected to follow the directions given for its use in class.

• During illness or an emergency in the school day, students should first ask a teacher, administrator, or staff member for permission before using a phone to contact home.

• Electronic devices (cell phones, laptops, smartwatches, etc.) are not used during exams or quizzes unless the teacher gives clear permission.

• If requested, students are expected to promptly and respectfully give their phone to a teacher, staff member, or administrator; Parents/Guardians will be notified when this occurs.

• If Parents/Guardians need to reach their student during the school day, they should call the main office rather than contact students directly during class.

Failure to comply with any of the above stipulations may result in confiscation of the device.

STUDENT LIFE

There is never a dull moment in the life of a Salesian student. From clubs and sports teams to international trips and service opportunities, Salesian students have endless opportunities to be active and grow as individuals.

Visual and Performing Arts

Discover your talents through the arts. Study in the exciting Visual and Media Arts Pathway, get involved in a theatrical performance, join our popular choral group, discover the world of music in our school band, or express yourself through dance or art.

Student Leadership and Ministry (SLAM)

At Salesian College Preparatory, SLAM is the collective form of student leadership and ministry. The mission of SLAM is to create a culture for good, a lever to serve the greater school community. By working together, SLAM members encourage spirit and cohesiveness throughout the entire school.

Campus Ministry

Campus Ministry Team (CMT) members express, through their faith-based emphasis on service, our Salesian commitment to serve youth and those in need. CMT students are the heart of many of our school’s community-focused activities. Such events include community toy drives, fundraisers for international relief causes, and local events for children in the community.

Service Learning

In order to instill in our students the importance of volunteerism, investing in one’s community, and giving back, each of our students must fulfill their personal service commitments throughout the academic year.

Clubs

Over 40 clubs are offered at Salesian College Preparatory and reflect the diverse nature of our student population - enabling students to follow their passion in different areas of interest. New clubs are formed by students each year! Our annual Club Fair takes place during the first few weeks of school so students can sign up. Clubs include Chess, the National Honor Society, Hiking, Art, Lego, Diversity, and Robotics, to name a few.

Retreats

Every year, each student takes part in a class retreat. The class retreat is designed to cultivate community and encourage students to explore their faith more fully.

We encourage you to explore the many religious, co-curricular, and service opportunities available.

Salesian’s Visual and Performing Arts program fosters selfexpression, creativity, critical thinking, and social awareness.

Global Citizenship

Salesian students experience learning that extends beyond the classroom. Throughout their high school journey, students engage with different cultures, absorb new perspectives, and gain skills and experiences that prepare them to make a positive impact as global citizens. By being part of a diverse student body, students learn to respect cultures, languages, religions, and traditions other than their own.

Exchange Program - Quebec

Students enrolled in French classes have the opportunity to take part in a week-long trip to Quebec, where they immerse themselves in the language and culture while connecting with peers at a fellow Salesian school in Canada, Le Salesién.

International Host Family Opportunities

As an International school, we warmly welcome students from 13 different countries. There are opportunities for families who are interested in hosting an international student. To learn more about hosting a student and to find out about the monthly stipend, please email Director of Admissions, Christina Karabinis, at ckarabinis@salesian.com.

Domestic and International Trips

Domestic and International Trips are offered to students every year. Past trips have included visits across the United States for college tours as well as international trips to France, Italy, Spain, Japan, Iceland, and the Galapagos Islands.

Athletics

Salesian College Preparatory has a welldeserved reputation as the “Home of Champions.” Since 2000, the Salesian Athletic Program has earned six California State Titles, 11 NorCal Championships, 34 North Coast Section Team Championships, and 92 League Championships.

• (FSP 2) Work at least one other “smaller” event or activity (i.e., Dance, Sporting Event)

• There is an “Opt Out Fee” option for families who decline to participate in FSP and agree to pay $500 instead.

• If a family does not show up for, or cancels their volunteer assignment less than 48 hours before the event, they will incur a $250 nonparticipation fee for each assignment that is unfulfilled.

TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM

Salesian offers students van shuttle transportation service to and from school throughout the Bay Area on a daily basis.

We have a fleet of 10 passenger vans that are maintained by Salesian and operated by parent volunteer drivers. We are proud to offer our students and their families this service. Your student can look forward to being picked up in one of our Salesian vans every morning and afternoon.

If you are interested in signing your student up for this program, we ask that you complete the form as soon as possible. There is limited availability and space is on a first-come, first-served basis. Once we finalize the numbers, we will provide you with the schedule of pick-up and drop-off times to best accommodate our families.

The shuttle will leave from Salesian College Preparatory 30 minutes after school is dismissed and will return via the same route. The cost per semester will be $800, paid in advance. If you choose to pay the entire year in advance, the cost will be $1,500 for a savings of $100.
