St. Francis de Sales School

𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐊 𝐘𝐎𝐔, 𝐅𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐄!

After 11 years of faithful leadership as President of St. Francis de Sales School, we offer our heartfelt thanks to Fr. Geoff Rose, OSFS!

Since arriving on campus in fall 2013, Fr. Rose has helped shape the future of St. Francis in countless ways, including:

> An improved balance sheet through growth of reserve funds, reduction of debt, and sustained philanthropic investments

> The introduction, integration, and astonishing growth of grades 7-8, combined with healthy and stable high school enrollment;

> The implementation of the Salesian Leadership Initiative, challenging all students to grow in humble confidence, authentic relationships, and servant leadership;

> All-new science classroom-labs in the Center for Advanced Scientific Exploration wing;

> The launch and groundbreaking of a $26 million campus improvement project as part of Our Faithful Loyalty – The 75th Anniversary Campaign.

Luckily, he is not going far! Fr. Rose will continue to be a part of the St. Francis family through the Jamaica Mission, the Global Salesian Leadership Symposium, and the Salesian Leadership Initiative.

Thank you, Fr. Geoff, for your dedication, friendship, and unwavering belief in the mission of St. Francis de Sales School. We are grateful for your service and look forward to the many ways you will continue to inspire our community.
