ST. FRANCIS HIGH SCHOOL St. Francis High School is a private Roman Catholic, Franciscan college preparatory school that serves young men of diverse faiths and backgrounds from around the world. Conducted by the Conventual Franciscan Friars, the entire school community works to develop the whole person through academic excellence, religious principles, and a wide variety of extracurricular activities. Imbued with the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi, we prepare young men to use their knowledge for the good of society and to see God in all people, especially the poor, neglected and marginalized. We envision a brotherhood of graduates who will live the Gospel of Jesus Christ and become leaders who are known by their faith, critical thinking, creativity, service to others, integrity, self-discipline, concern for the environment, and an openness to lifelong learning.

Catholic Identity, Franciscan Heritage Catholic schools afford the fullest and best opportunity to realize the fourfold purpose of Christian education, namely to provide an atmosphere in which the Gospel message is proclaimed, community in Christ is experienced, service to our sisters and brothers is the norm, and thanksgiving and worship of our God is cultivated. Guided by the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi and the Franciscan Order, we celebrate our identity as a Catholic school. Moreover, five Franciscan Friars serve in key dimensions of our school: administration, guidance, the religion department and campus ministry, and the fine arts. The entire SFHS community seeks to share the Franciscan message of Pax et Bonum (Peace and Good) to all those we meet along the educational journey. All students participate in a minimum of 40 hours of direct service to the low income and less fortunate during their time at SFHS.
