My three daughters attended St Francis High School (a all girl school). I feel that they got the a comprable education compared the the other high priced private schools. The schools tution was one the cheapest but the quality of learning was one the the best. My son attended a more expensive private school and recieved the same quality education. The principle, Sr Joan of Arc, is a very caring and compassionate person level headed administrator. She knows all of the student name, background, problems, &achievements. Due to the small size of the school the variety of electives are limited but the major elective in science, english, math, arts, & laguages are provided. The majority of graduates(98%) go on to attend college & do very well, as my daughters have.

I'm not a parent, but I did go to this school. I miss Saint Francis a lot and want to go back all the time. I don't care what anyone says, it's one of the best schools I've ever been to. It's probably the only school that offers American Sign Language, which was one of my favorite classes. It taught me to enjoy every class and every subject. I took band and enjoyed all the events. SFS has a ton of extra curricular activities.I love how the schedules are made as well. If I could choose any school, I would go back there in a heartbeat. I'm glad it's going to be K-12, except I'm not too 'wow' over the fact that it's co-ed. Perhaps this will help some of the girls learn to socialize with everyone. I could afford tuition through work study.

I don't understand how this 'horrified parent' which placed a review on January 2005 could have drawn such a horrible, and disgusting review on such a high-quality school. Saint Francis School has given my daughter the fortitude and confidence she needs to build her individual character. The school provides high-quality education taught by high-educated teachers (the majority have masters in their subjects), small classes for struggling students who need individual attention, and countless extracurricular activities to strengthen the gifts and talents of their students. I am disgusted with this 'horried parent's' reviews about the principal - Sr. Joan of Arc. Sr. Joan of Arc is not a disgrace to the clergy, and if this parent has nothing good to say about this school, he/she should not be reviewing at all. He/she is a disgrace to this community to be putting those kinds of reviews for parents to read.
