Mission
Padua Franciscan High School, a Catholic, college preparatory school, committed to the traditions and values of Saint Francis and Saint Clare of Assisi, educates young men and women within a community where all are challenged to achieve academic excellence and to live out a lifelong commitment to Christ in holiness and learning.
“The spirit of St. Francis pervades all that we do at Padua. It’s more than theology classes and retreats. Franciscan values animate our teachers as they challenge students to work harder and achieve their potential; they live in our alumni, as they return to support events and shape our future as volunteer leaders; and they show on the faces and in the hearts of our students every day as they share the joy of four years serving, striving, and growing in holiness and learning.”
-Fr. Allan DaCorte, ofm, President
