Weekly Prayer
Deacon Scott Pickett
O God, when we have food,
help us to remember the hungry;
When we or our parents have work,
help us to remember the jobless;
When we have a home,
help us to remember those who have no home at all;
When we are without pain,
help us to remember those who suffer,
And remembering,
help us to destroy our complacency;
bestir our compassion,
and be concerned enough to help;
by word and deed,
those who cry out for what we take for granted.
Help us, as a Lancer Family, to truly be thankful for all that we have in our lives. Amen.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel…Pray for us.

Students may not leave campus without clearance by the Health or Attendance Office. Parents may not remove a student from campus without prior notification to the Attendance Office. Students being picked up with a dismissal slip should report to the Attendance Office. Violation of this policy may result in an absence and disciplinary consequences may be imposed.

Salpointe Drug Testing
Dear Salpointe Community,
At Salpointe, we are deeply committed to working in partnership with you to ensure the health and well-being of our students. One important part of that commitment is our drug testing program, which provides a critical support system for our students and offers them an important “out” when faced with the temptation to use drugs.
While we are dedicated to regularly drug testing our Lancers, we need your help to make this program effective. Drug testing takes place once a week on A days, and we are currently seeking volunteers to assist with this important work. The volunteer training takes only 10 minutes, and the full day of volunteering runs from 8:20 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. weekly. If we can establish a robust pool of volunteers, we can split the time into two shifts to make it more manageable.
Unfortunately, we currently have very few volunteers supporting the program. Therefore, I am reaching out to our Salpointe community to ask for your assistance. If you have time in your schedule and are willing to contribute to this important cause, we would be so grateful for your support. Your time and commitment to this service opportunity would be deeply appreciated by our students, their families, and our entire school community.
If you are interested in volunteering or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly. I will connect you with Terry Neubeck, our School Health Assistant, to provide further details.
Thank you in advance for your support and generosity.
Warm regards,
Ardemis Martin
