Athlete Registration
All those who are thinking about participating in athletics this year, be sure to register at GoTroubies.com under “Athlete Registration”. That will take you to our Final Forms account where you can submit forms and let us know what teams you are interested in. Everyone must indicate the teams they are interested in trying-out for Final Forms to ensure they get all of the communications related to that sport. Even returning players must update their sports as that does not automatically roll-over from year to year.

St. Francis High School’s 2020-2021 Guardian Angel Peer Team met today via zoom. They are taking part in training to help get prepared for the school year ahead. The Guardian Angels along with our Wellness Team are really excited to reconnect with you all, and of course meet our new Troubadours!
Alumna Aine Colgan, Class of 2019, wrote a wonderful article for the 2019 Winter Pax Magazine about the SFHS Guardian Angels, and her experience as a member. Here is a little excerpt: “The “Guardian Angels” peer team is a dedicated group of Troubies who have been trained to help classmates address conflicts and provide support for them as they face the pressures in life. The peer team’s goal is to support, enhance and overall help improve students lives via a peer sisterhood experience here at St. Francis Catholic High School.” Check out the Full article below
