SFHS Education

As a college preparatory school, St. Francis' first priority is academics. With a student-to-teacher ratio of 11 to 1 and an average class size of 20, our students are guaranteed personal attention from the entire faculty, more than 70% of whom possess one or more Master's or Doctoral degrees. The personal commitment and dedication of both the Friars and lay faculty provide the best possible kind of education - one that develops the whole person: mind, body and spirit. Any student who is experiencing difficulty in any course can seek help from the teacher of that course. All teachers are available to the students for at least 40 minutes after dismissal to offer extra help, review study problems, make-up work missed, or address other difficulties.

The success of St. Francis High School's educational program is obvious at every graduation, where 98% or better of all students move on to post-secondary education. In addition, scholarships worth millions of dollars are awarded to our graduates each year.
