Dear Parents and Guardians,

We have had another joyfilled week at St. Francis of Assisi School. Today, we celebrated our 6th grade girls CYO soccer team with a clap out at dismissal as they head to the finals on Saturday! Go Eagles! Our kindergartners went on a field trip to the Fauntleroy Watershed where they learned about the life cycle of salmon.

Reflecting on the words of Proverbs 3:5-6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight," we are reminded of the importance of partnering with God and with each other in guiding our children.

We look forward to our Parent-Teacher Conferences next week. This is a valuable opportunity to discuss your child’s progress, celebrate their accomplishments, and set goals for the coming months. Teachers are eager to connect with you to ensure each student is supported academically and spiritually. Parent-Teacher conferences are scheduled for the following days & times:

Wednesday, Oct. 30th- 12:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Thursday, Oct. 31st- 8:00 am - 4:00 pm
Friday, Nov. 1st- 8:00 am - 12:00 pm

Fall conferences are mandatory for all families of students in all grades.
Students in grades 4-8 are required to attend the conference with their adults(s).
Students in grades K-3 do not attend the conference with their adult(s).


Your scheduled conference time is sent home today via the Friday envelope.  We ask that parents arrive ahead of time for their scheduled conference and keep to the allotted time.
