Sports at SFHS

St. Francis High School offers an array of co-curricular activities that help students to realize and share their gifts and talents.

The goal of the department is to provide an educational environment that fosters teamwork, collaboration, discipline, respect, personal responsibility, and sportsmanship. This allows our students to develop communication, leadership, and interpersonal skills that will prepare them for success beyond their time at St. Francis High School.

Fall coaches will receive a list of participants who have completed all forms and are cleared to participate.  Please check with your coach 30 minutes before the start of the first try out/practice session to ensure that your name is on the list.  If you are not, then you have not been cleared to participate/try out.  If this is the case, please report to the Athletic Director’s office immediately to determine what is needed to be cleared for participation.  Once you are cleared, you will be given a signed clearance pass to hand to your coach so you can begin participation.  You will not be allowed to participate without being on the list or receiving clearance from the Athletic office.
