St. Francis of Assisi Academy

Instagram wouldn’t let us post them all, so here’s one more!

Congratulations to our Grade 9 Band students who received the Fine Arts Award. Your dedication, creativity, and commitment to making music together have enriched our school community in so many ways.

Well done on this well-deserved recognition. Pace e Bene.

Today, at our Junior High Pace e Bene, we celebrated some of the dream gatekeepers among us.

The students who were recognized for living out our Catholic Social Teachings, achieving Honour Roll, and earning the top mark in each core subject. Their accomplishments deserve to be celebrated.

But awards tell only part of the story.

There are dream gatekeepers sitting in every row. The students who keep trying after a disappointing mark. The ones who choose kindness when no one notices. The classmates who include others, show up for their teams, encourage their friends, ask for help, and keep going even when things are hard.

Not every act of growth receives a certificate. Not every step forward is visible from a stage.

Each of you matters. Each of you is becoming. And each of you has dreams worth protecting.

So whether your name was called today or not, keep doing the small things well. Keep choosing who you want to become. Keep guarding the dreams God has placed on your heart.

Pace e Bene.

Another week.
Another chance to finish strong.

The official start of junior high exams.
The last full five-day week of the school year.
Field trips. Laughter. Memory-making. A few countdowns to summer.

The pace is fast, but so is the reminder:
these ordinary days become the moments we’ll remember.

Let’s make them count, Storm. 🌪️💙

Pace e Bene.

Peace and all good.

Not because they were perfect.
Not because they always had the right answers.
But because, day after day, they chose to become the kind of people our world needs more of.

They stood up for dignity.
They worked for the common good.
They served without seeking recognition.
They led with compassion.
They noticed who was left out and made room.

Chosen by the staff who witnessed their ordinary acts of goodness become something extraordinary.

Peace and all good, graduates. May you continue to live what you have learned. 🎓🕊️

A full day. Mass. BBQ. Farewell.

The first kindergarten class to walk our halls, now walking out as graduates. 🫶🏻

After celebrating Mass and blessing our Grade 9 graduates, our farewell festivities continued with a BBQ shared in community. 🌭☀️

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible parent volunteers who spent the morning preparing everything while we were at St. James Parish for our closing Mass.

We are so grateful for the village that surrounds our Storm students. 💙⚡️
