School Notes
St. Francis of Assisi Catholic School offers four
academic programs to meet the specific needs of your
child. The mission of our Traditional
Program is to offer excellence in education, guided by
love and service to God. Through our Faith, our faculty, and our
families, we remain committed to embracing each child`s individual
talents and providing them an engaging, and safe learning
environment. Our talented faculty challenges each student using a
21st Century digital and collaborative learning approach. The
primary mission of the PLUS Program is to foster
academic, emotional, social and spiritual growth for all our
students. We are specifically committed to serving the needs of
those students who more effectively learn in a smaller classroom
environment and with the support of teachers trained in
remediation. The Enhance Program offers learning
strategies and remediation to students in our Traditional Program
who have been identified as having gaps in basic skills proficiency
through our universal screening program, Easy CBM. This small group
instruction takes place during the school day outside of core
curriculum time. This is in addition to and in support of the
traditional classroom curriculum. The Gifted Enrichment
Program offers challenging, hands-on learning
opportunities to 2nd -5th grade students in our Traditional Program
who scored in the top 10% in science and/or math on the Iowa
Assessments. Visit our website at www.sfawolves.org and click on
