Our parish school exists to foster in our young people an in-depth understanding of their faith, the ability to speak and write persuasively about that faith, and an academic preparation that will enable them to excel in high school and beyond.
We are dedicated to this mission and are honored to have a vibrant school as part of our dynamic parish.
Our school strives to develop faith and goodness in each young person.
We support the important role that you, as parents, accepted at the Baptism of your child.

We have two children at TFS. They enjoy the school and the relationships they are building. The staff and the Friars balance very well the academics with religious teachings. The offerings are solid (I would personally prefer more languages) and there has been reasonable retention of teachers. Tuition is fairly priced and financial aid is possible; some may need to plan for additionals like meals, uniforms, etc. Overall this is great school and we will continue to enjoy it along with attending the Parish.

Blue Ribbon School by US DOE - great community feeling, very satisfied with choice. Our public school option is also one of the higher performing schools in Wake, according to NC DPI Performance Composites, but still think we are getting a better deal choosing St Francis.

Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
At last we have a dedicated phone number for suicide and crisis support. The Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is 988. More about it and suicide prevention here.
Seemingly never-ending school shootings prompted me to find out whether private schools were safer than public schools. Some answers and opinions on the matter here.
