Attending St. Francis High School was the best decision of my life. It gave me the opportunity to prepare myself for life after high school better than any public school. I enjoyed the people there who pushed me to be better every single day.

We have three sons who have graduated from St. Francis High School and a fourth son who is current student. We could not be happier with our choice in their high school education. St. Francis has offered our sons a challenging and well rounded education. Each son created their own path by joining different sports and clubs and following their own interests. The St. Francis faculty and staff go above and beyond to ensure the success of the students. The devout faculty offer daily early morning and after school instruction hours to help students. The faculty and staff's goal is to graduate St. Francis Gentlemen. Our sons are a part of a very special brotherhood while they are students and well beyond graduation. We are so pleased that we have been a part of the St. Francis Family for almost 20 years.

Great college preparation. Outstanding academic, fine arts and athletic programs. School set on a 70 acre suburban campus. Franciscan philosophy evident in attitude of students, parents, alumni, faculty and staff. Excellence without pretentiousness.
