At St. Jane Frances Catholic School, we are committed to providing a safe, caring, and enriching learning environment where every student is valued and supported. In partnership with St. Jane Frances Parish and our families, we prioritize student well-being, achievement, and faith development. Together, we strive to help students reach their full potential while growing into compassionate, confident, and responsible Catholic leaders.

Our school website provides important information about our programs, community, and expectations for students. Strong communication and a shared commitment between home and school are essential to student success.

At St. Jane Frances, we honour the traditions that have shaped our community while embracing the opportunities of the future. Through the dedication of our staff, the support of our families, and the enthusiasm of our students, we continue to foster a welcoming, inclusive, and faith-filled school environment.

In a school community which is formed by Catholic values and traditions, our mission is to educate students to their full potential by providing:

• Leadership in a shared responsibility for education that exists among schools, students, families, parishes and the community.

• A safe and welcoming learning environment that is an example of a Christian community.

• Role models of Gospel values and Catholic doctrines, teachings, and beliefs guidance in what students need to learn.

• Instruction in the learning process.

• Religious, academic and technological instruction.

• Integration of Catholic beliefs into the total learning experience and feedback on students’ proficiency and performance.

St. Jane Frances Catholic School opened in October 1964 with 169 students and a staff of seven, led by Principal John Raniowski. A school addition was completed in 1967 to support growing enrolment.

In 2000, following the planned closure of St. Camillo Catholic School, plans began for the construction of St. Jane Frances Catholic School. A building committee worked with architects to develop the design, which was presented to the community in 2002.

Construction began in 2003, including the demolition of the north wing, the construction of a new three-storey wing, and renovations to the south wing. During this period, classes were temporarily relocated to portables, the south wing, and the church basement to accommodate construction needs.

By September 2004, students and staff had moved into the new wing, with additional classrooms in the renovated south wing becoming available in January 2005. The completed facility provided a modern learning environment to support the growing St. Jane Frances community.

The school is named after St. Jane Frances de Chantal (1572–1641), whose feast day is celebrated on August 18.
