Meet Mrs. Wendl, one of our incredible 3rd-grade teachers at St. Francis of Assisi! In her classroom, students are encouraged to grow as lifelong readers and confident leaders. Mrs. Wendl loves bringing subjects together through meaningful, hands-on projects that keep learning engaging, purposeful, and fun. We are so grateful for the creativity, dedication, and heart she pours into her students each day! 💙

Today we begin the season of Lent — a time of prayer, sacrifice, and reflection as we journey toward Easter. On Ash Wednesday, we are reminded that we belong to God and are called to turn our hearts back to Him.

As a Catholic school community, we enter these 40 days with a desire to grow — in faith, in kindness, and in love.

May this Lent be a time of renewal for our students, families, and staff.

Heavenly Father,
As we begin this Lenten journey, soften our hearts and open our minds to Your will.
Help us to pray more deeply, love more generously, and serve more joyfully.
Give us the strength to let go of anything that keeps us from You.
May this season lead us closer to Jesus and prepare us to celebrate His Resurrection with grateful hearts.
Amen.

Let us walk this Lenten path together. 💜

Last Friday, our fifth graders shared a little extra love with our SFA parishioners after Mass by handing out their beautiful, handmade Valentines. 💕

With joyful hearts and big smiles, they reminded us all that small acts of kindness can make a big difference. We are so proud of the way our students live out our faith and brighten the day of those around them!

Look at these faces! This is the heart of St. Francis of Assisi. As we kick off Catholic Schools Week 2026, we aren’t just celebrating a school; we’re celebrating a family.

At St. Francis, we follow the footsteps of our patron by fostering a spirit of peace, joy, and service in everything we do. From our youngest preschoolers to our graduating 8th graders, every student is seen, loved, and challenged to grow.

Thinking about a change? We’d love to show you what makes this group so special. Come see the St. Francis difference for yourself!

Open House is this Sunday, February 1, 2026, from 8:00 am-12:30 pm.
