People can come in and actually see what happens here every day and the special people that we have and the special students that we have and most importantly the special family that we have here,” Andy Poterucha, St. Francis of Assisi School principal, said.

RCS is celebrating increased enrollment, growing from 68 kindergarteners in Fall 2020 to almost 100 that will start this fall.
