Weekly Letters from the Principal

To date we have learned about 3 of the 5 Schoolwide Learning Expectations (SLEs) for SFdA students. The five SLEs are Following Christ, Acquiring Knowledge, Inspiring Daily Conversion, Taking Responsibility, and Helping Others.

A student who takes responsibility recognizes that their actions, words, and choices have meaning and impact. They act with integrity, follow through on commitments, and strive to do what is right, even when no one is watching. Taking responsibility means being accountable for one’s behavior, learning from mistakes, and showing honesty, perseverance, and respect in all situations. A responsible student uses self-discipline and good judgment to make positive choices that reflect their faith, values, and respect for others.

Dear SFdA Families,

Happy Monday! As we begin November, my heart is full of gratitude for this wonderful community. One of the blessings of Catholic school life is that we get to grow together in so many ways: through prayer, learning, service, and, yes, a whole lot of fall fun!

What a fabulous evening we shared at “Trunk or Treat” and Fall-O-Ween! A heartfelt thank-you to everyone who helped bring it to life. From the first ideas and planning conversations to the preparations, “decorated trunks” aka tables in the upper room (thank you for pivoting and being so flexible), activities, and helping hands throughout the evening, so many people shared their time and talents. The laughter, smiles, and joy of being together were such a gift. Whether you helped behind the scenes or right in the middle of the festivities, please know how grateful we are. We truly could not have done it without you! What a beautiful example of using the gifts God has given us to bring joy to others.

At San Francisco de Asis Catholic School, we want our students to know their faith and live it in meaningful ways. Inspiring daily conversion means opening our hearts to Christ and allowing His love to shape our choices. Through our example, we can encourage others to draw closer to Him, too.

In our Catholic faith, conversion is an ongoing journey. Each day brings opportunities to turn toward God: choosing kindness, asking for forgiveness, making amends, or helping someone in need. These everyday choices help our students grow as faithful disciples and become a light in the world.
