Putting waste in the right place! Thank you to our grade 1 students who took the time to head outside and clean up our playground. Every ‘litter’ bit helps!

Grade 4 Kraft have been working very hard in preparation for this performance. First they learned the words to sing, then they learned how to read the music, and finally - how to play the instrument!

Save the Date! 🌸

This week we are celebrating station 4 of the Stations of the Light-the Risen Lord Appears on the Road to Emmaus. Thank you to our grade 9 students for leading the elementary classes through an outdoor meditation walk.

Kindergarten brainstormed the ways they love Mrs. Sue and the ways they can show their appreciation for her on Administrative Professionals Day!

Mrs. Sue is having a hard time clearing her desk this morning with the amount of love and cards she’s received from students and staff. We ♥️ you! Happy Administrative Professionals Day!

No one is more cherished in this world than someone who lightens the burden of another. Today we celebrate the value that our secretaries, administrative assistants, receptionists and other administrative support professionals provide on a daily basis in our schools. St. Francis of Assisi would like to take this time to thank our front office staff- you are a true blessing and gift to our school and the community you serve! May God bless you!

Students K-9 enjoyed delicious sundaes as part of our Stations of the Light. Vanilla represents Jesus cleansing of our sins. Chocolate reminds us of the sins he carried for us. The Oreo cookies for the stone that was rolled away. Blue sprinkles for Mary’s tears when she arrived at the empty tomb and thought Jesus’ body had been taken. Cherry for the love that Jesus has for all of us ♥️

Every week, staff at St. Francis take part in professional development on Fridays following early student dismissal. Whether in grade teams, division-based teams or as a whole staff, learning never ends! Today we were fortunate to welcome the Superintendent team and trustees to participate in “Superchat”. At these conversations, they consult about existing priorities and plans, and gather feedback on new needs arising in our schools. #SFALearning
