One Community Fund: Festival
Established jointly by the St. Francis Episcopal Church Vestry and the St. Francis Episcopal Day School Board of Trustees, the One Community Fund offers financial support for expenditures that benefit both the church and the school. The fund supports landscaping projects, improved security measures, staffing expenses, and many infrastructure improvements that are vital to the growth of our school and church community. Funding for the initiative is provided by the St. Francis Festival Day, which is held each spring.
St. Francis Festival Day
There's no more fitting way to conclude St. Francis Episcopal Day School’s 60th anniversary celebration than with Festival, one of our community’s time-honored traditions. Our Festival continues to bring our church families and school community together for an afternoon of fun, food, and fellowship.
Please save the date for our 43rd annual St. Francis Festival on Sunday, April 28, from noon until 4 p.m. at St. Francis Episcopal Day School and Church.
