Student Life
Students give life to SPX
SPX students' interests are as diverse as the school community - creating a welcoming, enthusiastic and lively campus. From Veritas Theatre and lacrosse to X-Crew and Robotics, students at SPX have the ability to explore their interests through a variety of co-curriculars. Students are encouraged to participate in the thriving student life outside of the classroom to bond with fellow Panthers as they grow in creativity, spirituality, leadership, and friendship.
St. Pius X has more than 25 student clubs that cover diverse topics such as science, foreign languages, student council, academics and community service.
