Kairos 100
Los Altos Retreat Center
Retreat registration is now open for the 2024-25 academic year. Alums often see Kairos as one of the most memorable and influential experiences at SFHS. Kairos explores the roles of spirituality, religion, relationships, and God in one’s life. This international retreat program is based on Ignatian Spirituality and meets each retreatant where they are in their unique faith journey.
Sophomore Family Mass
Save the Date!
On Wednesday, February 26th, at 5:30pm in the SFHS Gym, we will celebrate the Sophomore Family Mass. This simple evening liturgy and reception is the second of the four family Masses, highlighting the Class of 2027’s unity. All students in attendance receive the Pax et Bonum pin. Class rings purchased through Jostens will be available at check-in. Other mass reminders include:
Ash Wednesday Prayer Service
in the Gym
Lent is a season of preparation for Easter glory. It is also a time to embrace new life by turning away from old ways of living; we do this through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. On Ash Wednesday, we begin our communal prayer journey at 10:35am Mass in the Gym; guests are reminded to check in at the Front Office.
Kairos 101
Los Altos Retreat Center
Registration for K101 opens Monday, February 3. Please register through Camp Brain with your existing account.
The 4-day, 3-night retreat is held at the Jesuit Retreat Center in Los Altos. The fee is $225, but financial aid and payment plans are available. Contact Stephanie Villanueva if you have questions or need more information.

Baccalaureate Mass
in the SFHS Gym
This Mass gives thanks for the four years of hard work completed by students, faculty, staff, and families of the Class of 2024. The doors open at 4:30pm with a select group of seniors offering preludes starting at 4:45pm. The Symbol Procession (Seniors process into the gym holding symbols associated with their four years of high school and placing them at the base of the altar as a sign of gratitude) begins at 5:30pm with the Baccalaureate Mass immediately following. This Mass is step one of the Graduation Ceremony. As a faith community, we offer thanks to God for our many blessings. Come join in the celebration. Due to the size of the gym, each family is limited to 5 seats (plus the senior). Please use this form if you need special seating for people with mobility concerns.
