New Testament. Home works are to be completed via the computer or

student grade. Class participation which includes daily involvement in the
class and answering review questions before exams will be twenty percent of the

The first week of class the students will learn about the life St.
Francis de Sales the patron of Salesianum. Sacred Scripture had a profound
influence on Francis from the age of ten. He learned to live his motto

Sales to their lives.
