Cemetary
Theres a cemetary at this school? Can somebody verify this? Hedley 22:59, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yes, there is indeed a cemetary at SHS. Salesian Fathers and Brothers are buried in the gated cemetary behind the residence, It's visible in satelite photos of the school. DukeB-120th 02:00, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

I am a student of Salesian High School and there is a cemetary by the priests' residence, and Salesian's from all around California a buried there.He Who Laughs Last 04:45, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Mascot
I tried to remedy the "citation needed" flag for the new mascot... It doesnt appear correctly, but the link is within ref tags in the article and I will also post it here: http://www.contracostatimes.com/mld/cctimes/news/16496964.htm

metric
the metric needs to be there for people who live in english speaking countries that don't use the american/imperial/english form such as Australia, the UK, New Zealand, South Africa, Nicaragua, Jamaica, Canada, Ireland, etc. WP:MOSCUM does not apply because this is not obtrusive to the opening line and is a small singular instance.MY♥IN chile 18:43, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Sister School?
I highly doubt that Saint Mary's CHS was a sister school of Salesian HS. One of the biggest pieces of evidence is that SHS is a Salesian institution and SMCHS is a Lasallian institution. Was it even an all-girls school? We need some sourcing here, it almost sounds patently false. DukeB-120th talk 20:28, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

I went there too for two years. Saint Mary's is the rival school. Saint Mary's was formerly an all girls school. And what i meant by sister school is that in the general area men would attend Salesian and women would attend Saint Mary's.MY♥IN chile 22:53, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Copyright
The sole copyright problem in this article seems to have consisted in two sentences. Currently, the article is copyright violation free. Contributors are reminded, please, not to incorporate phrases or sentences from other sources without proper attribution. See WP:C and WP:FU for more.

While investigating copyright concerns, I have ensured that the article is fully sourced. This means that I have removed some unverifiable information. Please feel free to restore removed information with proper sources. Some of the information formerly included seems to have run counter to existing sources. For example, according to it's history section, St. Mary's was a school for young men from its founding in 1863 until it began accepting girls in 1995, "its first year of coeducation." It does not seem ever to have been an all female school, and there is no mention of any formal connection to Salesian High School there. (If a different St. Mary's is intended, then clearly the wikilink and the address need to be changed.) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:11, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

nice, but
This is a nice article but
 * lists .... you do soccer and foot ball And you are an american school ... tell us something we don't know!
 * You used to be a school to train boys who wanted to be monks in the Silesian order. This order is to care for the children of the industrial revolution ... which could include schools. So nowadys how many traineee monks have you got? The world doesnt know about Silesian pride.... tell us about it.
 * Keep your pictures subtle - you can click on them if you want to see them all.

Hope to see this on "Did You know" ....
