Welcome to St. Francis de Sales Parish School
Dear Families,
Welcome to St. Francis de Sales Parish School! For over 175 years, our parish and school have been a cornerstone of the Lake Geneva community, and I am honored to be part of this incredible legacy once again. Returning as principal after serving in this role years ago feels like coming home.
At St. Francis de Sales, we are proud to serve students from 3K through 8th grade, many of whom come from second- and even third-generation families. Rooted in our Catholic faith, our mission is to nurture the spiritual, academic, moral, emotional, and social development of every child. We are deeply committed to forming students in the image of Christ through example, guidance, encouragement, and a dedication to academic excellence.
Our curriculum is designed to meet and exceed the Milwaukee Archdiocese Core Curriculum Content Standards. With small class sizes and a dedicated, caring, and experienced staff, we are able to provide personalized instruction that fosters curiosity, independence, and a lifelong love of learning.
Beyond academics, we believe in creating meaningful experiences for our students. From hands-on learning and field trips to a variety of extracurricular activities, we strive to develop well-rounded students who are prepared for the challenges of tomorrow while growing in faith and service.
We are also proud to participate in the Wisconsin Parental Choice Program (WPCP), which provides qualifying families the opportunity to receive a high-quality Catholic education at little to no cost. At St. Francis de Sales, we are committed to ensuring that every family who desires a Catholic education for their child has access to one. Our doors are open to all who seek to grow in faith, knowledge, and service.
One of the greatest strengths of our school is our exceptional faculty. In my short time back, I have witnessed firsthand their deep commitment to nurturing both the minds and hearts of their students. They model respect, responsibility, and compassion while delivering strong academic instruction—creating a faith-filled environment where students can strive, believe, and achieve.
We are also blessed with an incredibly supportive parent community. Whether volunteering in the classroom, coaching a team, planning student events, or supporting our teachers, our families play an essential role in making St. Francis de Sales the vibrant, welcoming school it is today.
It is a privilege to once again serve this community and to partner with you in your child’s educational journey. I invite you to explore our website, visit our campus, and experience the warmth and faith-filled spirit of St. Francis de Sales Parish School.
Blessings,
David Wieters
Principal
