History
Established in 1976.
Saint Francis School was founded in 1976 with just 20 students and five faculty members, guided by a vision of nurturing young minds in a compassionate environment. Under the leadership of Headmaster Drew Buccellato since 1981, the school moved from its modest beginnings in a small farmhouse to the thriving Roswell campus in 1986. In response to a growing need for expanded education, Saint Francis added a high school in 1994, introducing a rigorous college-prep curriculum.
To meet the needs of our growing community, we built a state-of-the-art high school in Milton, Georgia, providing an ideal setting for students to thrive. While not a religious school, the name Saint Francis reflects our values of care, protection, and guidance, inspired by Saint Francis of Assisi. Today, with over 700 students and 200 faculty and staff, Saint Francis School remains committed to ensuring every student is seen, heard, and valued, preparing them for a future of confidence, compassion, and success.
