We are pleased to provide you with the St. Pius X weekly e-newsletter, eSpiritus. The newsletter, which is sent every Monday during the school year, includes information about happenings at St. Pius X. 
This Week
Virtual Classes to Continue; Campus Closed to Students
Currently St. Pius X is using virtual days to help students stay connected and continue to make progress in their classes. At this time, virtual days will continue through this week and will resume after Spring Break (more info below). Please click here for basic information to keep you informed and help you better understand this process.
Course Registration for 2020-2021 Wednesday
Course registration for next year will take place this Wednesday, April 1, between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.  Completing your course registration is, essentially, an assignment you must complete during the school day.

Students are required to submit their registration in PowerSchool AND submit a Google form (found on your PSL class pages) when they have completed registration. Students will also have access to a Google form that can be submitted ALONG WITH their PS course registration if they encounter any problems.

A reminder and the problem form link will be sent to each student on Wednesday morning. 

Students are responsible for submitting their registration CORRECTLY and BY THE DEADLINE. Students who do not are agreeing to allow the computer to make their selections, after which no course and/or schedule changes will be allowed.

Please see the email from Mrs. Travers from Friday, March 27 for more information.

New Information
Works of Mercy CoVid-19 Update
In light of the COVID-19 outbreak, we realize that many opportunities for service for our students have been cancelled or postponed indefinitely. We have updated the Works of Mercy requirements for our student body that can hopefully relieve some of the stress surrounding completing the service requirement for this school year.  The new requirements can be found here.
St. Pius X Loves Our Volunteers
Due to social distancing, we are unable to celebrate all of our amazing SPX volunteers on April 24 as planned.  We are working on other ways to thank you and would appreciate it if you would fill out this  form if you have volunteered this school year in any capacity.  Thank you!
Registration is open! Join parents, alumni and the St. Pius X community FORE the LOVE of St. Pius X to raise funds for the St. Pius X football program and the Alumni Scholarship Fund at the George B. Maloof Lion Nation Golf and Tennis Classic, June 23 and June 26, respectively. Registration and sponsorship opportunities may be found HERE.
