Get to Know SFDS!
Welcome to the St. Francis de Sales High School “Get to Know SFDS” page! We are a small, personal, individualized Catholic School on the Southeast Side of Chicago. Although the school has been here a long time (almost 90 years), we are young at heart, understanding, encouraging and challenging students to “be who they are and be it well” or in today’s terms — to define themself at St. Francis de Sales!
Here are just a few things that define us:
Student Centered: We know you! You are the center of core of what we do!
Academic Excellence: We believe in you! We know you have a world of choices through hard work and opportunities!
Equity: We eliminate barriers to ensure equitable outcomes. Our Work Study Program is just one example of this — read about it here!
Community Driven: Our school is an extension of our community. We need to work, serve and grow together. Just drive by on the third Saturday and you will see us at work!
God Centered: God and love are at the center of all we do!
Big Shoulders Fund Plus School: Big Shoulders Fund is our primary partner and we are proud to be a Plus School! Read more here.
