As we close out our first week of school we are grateful for your support navigating the ins and outs of learning at home. We appreciate all our teachers and the preparations they made for this week go so smoothly. 

The best part of our week was seeing our students in class. We look forward to seeing everyone after the late start on Monday at 8:50 am. Please mark your calendars for virtual grade level Back to School meetings listed below.

Please share any comments or concerns on the parent back to school link below.

 Stay healthy and have a blessed weekend!
Msgr. Ronald Swett
Msgr. Swett, who has been a fixture in our community for over 30 years, passed away last week. He was the longtime pastor of St. Philip the Apostle Church. Msgr. Swett was supportive of St. Francis Parish School and celebrated his birthday with us at our All Saints Mass each year. He came out of retirement to be St Francis Parish’s temporary pastor. He often presided at our Wednesday Masses. We are grateful for his leadership and guidance over the last year and a half. Msgr. Swett has been a good and faithful servant of our Lord.

Eternal rest, grant unto him O Lord
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace. Amen.

May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen.


“We know that God has created us with reason and freedom to enable us to discover the truth about reality and to live according to that truth. So the proper function of education is to be transformative. It is to help form young men and women so they become the people whom God created them to be.”
