Mother Theresa

At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done. We will be judged by “I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in.

Graduation Requirements

St. Francis Borgia High School recognizes Pope Francis’ message that we should “encounter those most in need” in our daily lives and the best way to do that is through service. We want our students to see the power and the good of making a Christian commitment to the service of others. Therefore, all students are required to serve a minimum of 100 Christian Service hours before they graduate.
