What Our Alumni Say

Steve Irr
Fire Chief, City of YumaThe education and values I received attending St. Francis Catholic School is essential to the person I am today. The values of faith, family and service to the community were instilled in me through the formation provided by St. Francis School and are still core values I hold today, not only as a husband, son and father but also as a community leader, serving as the City of Yuma Fire Chief.

Dr. Jean Amon

I was not only challenged and motivated through the rigorous elementary education, but learned how to be my best self through teachings of spirituality, ethics, and integrity.
