About Us
“I have the firm confidence that God will bless our educational program since God is giving us the means to realize it.”

Blessed Basil Moreau,

Life at Saint Francis
"We shall always place education side by side with instruction; the mind will not be cultivated at the expense of the heart. While we prepare useful citizens for society, we shall likewise do our utmost to prepare citizens for heaven."

"Let us be 'one,' just as our Lord Jesus Christ asked this unity for us of His Father. It is only on this condition that God will give us His own strength; this strength which flows from charity, mutual harmony, oneness of wills, and the mild bonds of the heart."

Mission & Ministry
“How we educate the mind will change with the times; how we cultivate the heart is and will remain timeless.”

"Even though we base our philosophy course on the data of faith, no one need fear that we shall confine our teaching within narrow and unscientific boundries. No, we wish to accept science without prejudice and in a manner adapted to the needs of our times. We do not want our students to be ignorant of anything they should know. To this end, we shall shrink from no sacrifice."

"What is true of the palace whose foundations have been laid and which is rising gradually until completion is verified, likewise, is a great work of charity.It is not one alone who builds; nor is it one stone, or one single beam of wood, that forms it. Each worker contributes something from his own trade...Union, then, is a powerful level with which we could move, direct, and sanctify the world."

SFHS with SCU Presents

Innovations in Dementia Care (I2DC)

Pitchfest & Celebration

November 30, 2022

Innovation in Demetia Care

Join us for our first Innovations in Dementia Care (I2DC) Pitchfest & Celebration. Seventeen students have been working in teams to identify a challenge in dementia care - either for the person with dementia or the caregiver - in order to create and prototype their own solution. On November 30th, our four teams of Lancers across all grade levels will come together to pitch their ideas and showcase the work they have done in this ten-week engagement with Santa Clara University's Healthcare Innovation and Design Program. At least one project will be selected to move forward for the next two years, converting their pitch from prototype to product.

SFHS Students
Ryan Matsumoto, Bella Sandoval, Edla Lahtiranta, Mahika Mithbaokar, Shiven Patel, Jack Blatnik, Anvitha Yalamanchili, Johanna Perez, Anoushka Roshan, Cate McCarthy, Hoshita Undella, Sanjana Srikanth, Alexander Chang, Isabella Roenicke, Jennifer Tolland, Rohan Sinha, Elizabeth Jobson
