Admissions

Thank you for your interest in St. Francis School. Choosing your child's school is a big decision and this is an important first step in ensuring your child a bright future filled with faith and knowledge.

At St. Francis School children acquire a solid foundation in our Catholic faith, as well as the basic academics, while experiencing an atmosphere that reflects Christian values. Since 1948, we have offered a balance of faith and education, doing more than preparing students for tests in the classroom; we prepare them for tests in life. 

In addition to a complete academic curriculum and faith-based learning, our program features:
  • Experienced and accredited teachers
  • Small class sizes
  • Advanced classroom technology
  • Arts/Music
  • Safe and secure building
  • Bus service within the Ellsworth Community School District
  • Tuition-free 4YK program (click here for more information)
