The sense of community is one of the biggest things that sets St. Francis School apart. Everyone knows and cares for one another. Parents, staff, and students alike are all invested in our child and that is worth more than I could have ever anticipated.

November 1st marked the end of our first quarter at school. I can't believe it is completed! On Friday, October 25th the teachers and I attended a diocesan in-service in Chippewa Falls. We started the day with mass at St. Charles Borromeo Church and finished the rest of the day at McDonell Middle School. We began with a prayer that I would like to share:

Sophie Grimm, a proud alumna of St. Francis School and the Ellsworth High School Class of 2006, has built a vibrant life and career in Chicago as a performer in both music and theatre. This spring, she’ll take on a new role off-stage as well—she’s set to marry her sweetheart in May 2025!

Mrs. Liza Chatt joined St. Francis School in December 2007, answering an ad in the newspaper for a teacher’s assistant position. Since then, she has become an integral part of our school community, working as an interventionist and classroom assistant.
