The St. Francis schools take pride in providing an excellent, well rounded education to our students.  After several years of training with TASN, St. Francis now implements a successful multi-tiered system of support to help close student achievement gaps.  We have also adopted a Pre-K through 12th grade Social Emotional Learning curriculum.  During the 2021-2022 school year, all certified staff participated in professional development centered around Project-Based Learning.  USD 297 continually seeks to improve student learning.  We believe high quality educators are a crucial factor in the success of our schools.
