the CHURCH of St. Francis of Assisi

We currently have openings available at St. Francis of Assisi School. It is our desire that every child be given the opportunity for a quality, Catholic education.  We encourage you to contact Rochester Catholic Schools for registering your children for the 2019-2020 academic year.  RCS offers a variety of financial support options to our families.

We invite you to visit and see how you might become part of our family as we journey together in faith, knowledge and service.
