A Message from Dr. Lair

I extend a warm welcome to you as you visit the St. Francis Episcopal Day School website. More than 600 families, with over 800 children, have already made the decision to become a part of our community. Some of the reasons they chose St. Francis can be found in our mission statement:

In the Anglican tradition,
St. Francis Episcopal Day School challenges
and motivates students in an academically
and spiritually stimulating environment
to become imaginative, critical thinkers,
and people for others.

That balance between excellent academics, a nurturing environment and character development is what makes St. Francis unique among independent schools. The families in our community also appreciate the integration of our Episcopal identity into everyday school life, our inclusive yet competitive athletics program, our superb fine arts opportunities, the advanced technological instruction our students enjoy, and our emphasis on compassionate service and community outreach. Our graduates will be the first to tell you: These add up to a truly inspired education.

We encourage your questions, and open the doors of our community wide to you and your family. Please come visit our campus and meet the people who make this a special place.

Cordially,
Susan B. Lair, PhD
Head of School
