Welcome to St. Francis of Assisi School and to our new website. You’ll find our school located in the heart of Ygnacio Valley, 25 miles east of San Francisco. Here at St. Francis of Assisi School we always strive to provide the best Catholic education available to students from kindergarten to eighth grade.

For information on everything from registration and athletics, to volunteering and hot lunches, you’ll find it here. So please, take a few minutes to explore our website, and find out what we have to offer. If you have any questions, please contact us directly. We hope you enjoy your stay at St. Francis of Assisi School’s Internet home!

Dear Friends of St. Francis,

Where did that long-awaited Easter break go? It is amazing how time continues to fly as we move through the year. I trust all of you had an opportunity for some rest and perhaps even a bit of recreating with your families.

All the hymns of this season have at least one “alleluia!” in the chorus. This is to proclaim the wonderful fact that “we are Easter people and ‘alleluia’ is our song!” Truly, this is the case, as our whole liturgical life revolves around the most significant day in the church calendar. As we continue through this season, let us remember to keep up the practice of Sunday liturgy as a family.

The eighth graders have gone into “countdown mode” which is a sign of things to come. However, we still have many things to accomplish. Friday will be our “Auction Fun” day for the students as they get to experience some of the things which made the “80s Rock” so they will know what their folks will be celebrating (and possibly in costume for) on April 20 at Boundary Oak. Hopefully you all have your tickets, but there is still time to buy raffle tickets and get involved with the “sign-ups” and the many auction items which will be available that night.

Early thanks to all those who have spent so much time readying this event, which benefits our students and school. If you have not had a chance to volunteer for some of the jobs that night, please be sure to get in touch with the committee to get on the lists. Remember that our volunteer hours for the year are due April 20. I am looking forward to sharing our night together in celebration of all that is good about SFA.

Thanks!

Sister James
