What is Light the Way?

More than 60 years ago, the Brothers of the Holy Cross journeyed to Mountain View to found a Catholic school for boys. Led by God and inspired by the Blessed Basil Moreau life’s work, they created a campus and a community — and a path of possibilities. 

In 1955, as the region was quickly changing from agriculture to industry, the small school flourished. With patience and care, the Brothers were lighting the way. 

Our educators continue to model their example, lighting the way for students by teaching, coaching and encouraging personal growth. In turn, our students and alumni alike use the lessons they’ve learned at Saint Francis to solve challenges and benefit their communities. And Saint Francis serves as a beacon of light in the Silicon Valley and across the Holy Cross network as we strive to exemplify the importance of a values-based education.

Light the Way: Advancing Saint Francis High School, our once-in-a-lifetime $100 million campaign engages our students and educators with the modern facilities and resources they need to be leaders of impact, formed in an excellent educational community.
