2010-2011 School Year Registration
Admission to St. Francis Catholic School is based on the school’s ability to serve the child effectively with the resources available to us.

REREGISTRATION FORMS will be sent to the parents of present students and their siblings in the Take-Home-Tuesday on January 26, 2010. These forms, including registration fee, are to be returned to the school office no later than 3:30 PM on Thursday, February 4th.

FIRST TIME REGISTRATION - On February 1, 2010, new student application forms will be available in the school office and on our web site. From February 8th through February 19th, when the school office receives completed applications for new students, the date and time of the application will be noted and each will be placed in either the “parishioner” or “not a parishioner” category. Beginning February 22, 2010, the school office will accept completed applications for new students on a “first come first served” basis. These procedures allow for current students and their siblings to be provided the first opportunity to register for the new school year; and parish members not presently attending the school the second opportunity to register, and those families who are not parishioners the third opportunity to register.
