We are proud to present the First Annual St. Francis de Sales Gala, A Knight for the Future, a special evening celebrating faith, community, and the bright future of St. Francis.


We are especially honored to celebrate Catherine Thompson, our Superintendent

and former Principal of St. Francis, whose leadership, dedication,

and heart for Catholic education have shaped our school in countless ways.

Join us as we gather to celebrate her legacy and invest in the future of SFDS.

A Knight for the Future Gala is only possible because of the generous hearts in our St. Francis de Sales community.

We are currently seeking:

  • Donations of goods or services for our auction and event needs

Together, we can make this a KNIGHT to remember.

Cooperation: "To work together toward a common goal.”

Cooperation is an important skill and looks like this: Compromising, Listening, Sharing, Encouraging, Taking Turns, and Doing Your Part. Here are some conversation starters to help:


  • What does the word cooperate mean to you?
  • How does your family cooperate?
  • What is fun about working in groups?
  • What can be frustrating when working in groups?
  • Talk about a time when you cooperated with your friends.
  • What is something you have to do to cooperate at school?
  • When is it okay to be un-cooperative?
