The announcement of the transfer of Father Williams has become a bittersweet reality for our school community. We will certainly miss Father Williams, and are grateful for the past 4 years we have enjoyed with him as a part of our school community! It was very nice of Father Williams to invite Father Healy for a visit to the school at the end of the 2020-2021 school year, so students and faculty could get to meet him in-person.
Join us in welcoming Fr. Healy to our school community!

After graduation, he was assigned to St. John’s Seminary in Brighton, MA, receiving a Masters of Divinity and a Bachelor’s in Sacred Theology. Fr. Healy was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Edgar M. da Cunha at St. Mary’s Cathedral in Fall River on June 1, 2019.

Thank you for your interest in our wonderful Preschool through Grade 8 school community!
Traditionally we welcome new families at our Open House at registration time each year for student-led tours; and invite students to spend-a-day. Given the current reality, that is unfortunately not possible. We wanted to connect with potential families in a way that gives you a sense for our school community as you look to enroll your son or daughter, and look forward to getting to know all our families through the application process. In the meantime…
We hope you enjoy this glimpse into St. Francis.
