Dedicated to Education

Growth, community, and belonging.

These three components were the backbone of alumni Brendan Lyles's time at The Franciscan School. When his mom became a teacher at TFS, Brendan began in the middle of 3rd grade and graduated in 2008. Though the transition in 3rd grade was tough, he credits the faculty and students for helping him make it through and feel like he belonged. “I remember playing in the classrooms after school with the other teachers’ children and the sense of community that brought,” shared Brendan.
