Frank Holodick '24
My time at Salesianum was completely transformative. I've taken college classes on topics I didn't even know existed, traveled to two foreign countries on BRIDGE trips, went on retreats that expanded my faith, and was given a second family of brothers and mentors that will last far beyond high school.

Salesianum School educates and develops the whole person based on the teaching of Saint Francis de Sales, whose spirituality can be summarized in “Live Jesus.” As an independent Catholic secondary school founded by the Oblates of St. Francis de Sales in 1903, Salesianum challenges young men through dynamic college preparatory and extracurricular programs to live as Salesian Gentlemen devoted to faith, community, and service.
