SSFC MISSION STATEMENT

SAINTS FRANCIS & CLARE OF ASSISI SCHOOL MINISTRY PREPARES CHILDREN TO BE LEADERS IN FAITH, ACADEMICS AND CHARACTER.

OUR CATHOLIC IDENTITY, ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AND NURTURING ENVIRONMENT EMPOWER CHILDREN TO KNOW, LOVE AND SERVE GOD.

A child’s best hope of reaching his/her potential is when parents and educators work as partners for success. Below is a list of expectations of all school parents, which will be added to the school handbook.

As we are the primary educators of our children . . .

• We will attend Sunday Mass services in our church and be active in our faith as an example for our children.
• We will be involved in school and parish events as well as service opportunities in the community.
• We will stay informed of school and church events through The Wolf Report, teacher newsletters, and the parish bulletin.
• We will provide the school with all medical, dental, psychological, baptismal and other pertinent information teachers and staff need to help our children function successfully both academically and socially.
• We agree to support Ss. Francis & Clare of Assisi parish through prayer, positive relationships, and the giving of our time, talent, and treasure. We will pay our tuition in accordance with timelines established by the school.
• We will do our best to plan medical appointments and family vacations around the school calendar in order to avoid missing any instruction.
• We will avoid gossip and be supportive of the school, teachers, and administration in front of our children and parish community.
• We will contact our child’s teacher to schedule a conference as soon as we feel a problem exists. We will withhold judgment until speaking with the teacher, whom we will always contact first before contacting the principal or assistant principal.
• We will regularly review school provided devices to ensure appropriate and safe interactions with others.
• We agree that any communication with our child during the school day will always go through the school office.
