Admissions
The tradition continues, be a part of it, be a Sartan. Now taking applications for incoming fall '22 freshmen and transfers.St. Pius X welcomes students of all faiths and backgrounds to apply.

We also accept senior year admissions, but only students transferring from other Catholic high schools are considered.

SPX accepts applicants on the basis of our placement test, previous academic performance (grades and standardized test scores), the recommendation of teachers, and the promise of the student’s future development in the areas of the school's mission as a Catholic college preparatory school.
