Technology at St. Francis is a tool going beyond computer literacy by incorporating lessons using technological support in every subject for every student. Students are active participants in searching for knowledge using the Internet, print, and other electronic sources. They learn to retrieve and use information to complete projects and assignments. Each classroom is Internet ready. Teachers and students use technology as a problem solving, communication, and research tool to enhance an already rich learning experience.
Students use real world technology to present their information to a wide audience.
St. Francis offers many exciting opportunities for students to involve themselves in the fine arts. Through the music, drama, and art programs, our students learn the values of discipline, perseverance, and commitment, and the joy of performing in front of a live audience. With strings, choir, band, drama club, and studio art, students have opportunities to explore their own creativity and interests while being trained by talented artists and musicians. Along with art in classroom instruction and after school clubs, St. Francis is extremely proud to offer our students Art a la Carte. This innovative program enhances the art and social studies curriculum by bringing teams of trained volunteers into the classroom to help the students learn to appreciate great art.
