As we look forward to next week's Thanksgiving vacation, we hope you will enjoy time with family and friends and have the chance for some fun and relaxation!


This is the time of year for giving thanks and we wish to take the opportunity to thank all of our students and families for helping us to create such a wonderful sense of community here at St. Francis de Sales. On behalf of our faculty and staff, Happy Thanksgiving!


May God continue to bless each of you this Thanksgiving and provide you the opportunity to reflect on His care, His peace, and His love. Enjoy the break and remain safe and healthy!
