Dear St. Francis Families,

Last month I announced that we were beginning the visionary work of strategic planning as part of an ongoing effort to ensure St. Francis Catholic High School remains strong and vibrant. As you know, to optimize this long range planning process for our school we engaged the services of Meitler, a national Catholic school planning firm. An important part of our planning involves hearing from families who currently have daughters enrolled at St. Francis High School.

That’s why I’m asking you to complete this short survey; it should take less than ten minutes, and will influence areas across campus including educational programs, enrollment and facilities. All responses are confidential; one survey per household. The survey link will be open until Monday, March 27.

All of your daughters are helping me too – they completed their own strategic planning survey in class earlier this week with the incentive of free dress going to the class with the highest response rate. To keep things fair, we are also awarding free dress to the class with the highest parent participation rate (again, only one survey per family please regardless of your level of enthusiasm for your daughter!). I knew there would be a way to make this fun – a skill I learned from our Troubies!

In the spirit of Pax et Bonum,

Dr. Fadia Desmond
President
