Dear St. Francis Families,

We had another fantastic week at St. Francis, barring the ongoing winter storms. Your daughters are tackling the new year with positive energy and optimism. While looking ahead to the remaining months of this semester, your daughters have begun to hear about course registration for the upcoming school year. Obviously, our seniors are slowly starting to realize their time at St. Francis is quickly coming to an end, and anxiously looking ahead to new experiences and adventures. 

In the weeks ahead, we have several important events taking place, and ask that you monitor your email and our social media sites, so you can stay connected with all of the fun and exciting community events we’ll be celebrating.

  • January 16th – Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday (School Closed)
  • January 27th – SWAP Day
  • January 28th – Crab Feed Dinner & Dance
  • January 30 – Feb. 3rd – Pax et Bonum Week

As we close out another week of this new year, I extend a heartfelt and sincere thank you to all of you for choosing St. Francis Catholic High School and, more importantly, for supporting Catholic education and allowing us to be your educational partners.

St. Francis of Assisi, pray for us!
St. Clare of Assisi, pray for us!

Pax et Bonum (peace and goodness),

Dear St. Francis Families,

Welcome back and Happy New Year!  It is hard to believe that we are in the second-half of the 2022-2023 academic year. I know the two weeks of Christmas break probably moved at a different pace, but now that school is back in session, a sense of normalcy should return to your households.  The remaining months of this semester are going to move quite rapidly, and it’s important that we remind our students to plan ahead, stay on target, and not procrastinate. 

As the pace of the semester picks-up, we also want to ensure that our Troubies utilize the various support systems we have in place at St. Francis, such as asking teachers for assistance, signing up for tutoring, working with Counseling and/or Wellness counselors to decrease some of the inherent anxiety that happens toward the end of the semester.

St. Francis of Assisi, pray for us!
St. Clare of Assisi, pray for us!

Pax et Bonum (peace and goodness).
