Parents Corner

Father of Palash Nirmal Raval Grade 2 says: “I am glad to share my feedback with you regarding the Virtual Academic Year 2020-2021. I would like to appreciate St.Francis High School for the way online classes were conducted during this unexpected situation. It would have never been easy for kids to get adapted to new ways of virtual learning without the efforts of teachers and their support. I appreciate all the teachers of Grade -2 especially Mrs. Sangeeta Awadekar for leading the team and ensuring smooth conduct of classes. Thank you all for guiding, supporting, encouraging and moulding my child throughout the year. Hoping for the same love and encouragement for Palash Nirmal Raval his upcoming Grade -3. All the best SFHS, keep up the good work.”

St.Francis High School has been great for my children, they liked the school a lot for its friendly teachers and infrastructure. It’s only been few months for us with this school, but so far our experience is great. This opinion comes from our family, where we own and run a school as well.

At St.Francis High School my daughter has been going here since her Sr. Kg days. I have seen this school develop from a fledgling and blossom into a wonderful educational institution. My daughter has developed into a wonderful child in this cradle of knowledge and I wish the school further success and laurels.

I am Parent of Ms. Chinmayee Nimbalkar recently promoted to Grade 8. My child is new to the school last year and we as a parent much worried about the acclimatization of the child to the new atmosphere. We used to visit the school often interacting with the Headmistress and the teacher for the initial three months and was much worried about the things like food, transport,etc. But I have observed the tremendous changes in so many things with my child especially the observation, interaction, thinking and deep attachment with the school and the class teacher. Really the interest towards any activity or education can only be possible only by the influence of the trainer which is much true in my child’s case. I want to thank and appreciate all the teachers for their passion, involvement, commitment and so many things. They always treated my child as their family member. It can be clearly viewed from the child’s own representation that he has written on his own in the assessment which has taken me back to my childhood days. The affection and respect is so high that my child is expecting the same for Grade 9. It is really amazing! The next very pleasant thing was they never differentiated. I have observed my kid treating his/her teachers with respect. I wish and expect that this atmosphere exists ever in all the grades! Thanks to the Headmistress and entire teachers connected to this school.

April 18, 2021 Ms. Bhumika Samota (my daughter) has been enrolled at St.Francis High School in Vasai for the past 3 school years. She has thoroughly enjoyed her time during physical as well as now on online for past 2 yrs and I, as a parent, I have a very positive impression of the education she has received. She has had positive interactions with the teachers and the other students. In addition, the teachers are quite perceptive. Their reports on Bhumika’s strengths and weaknesses show they are paying close attention to the children and accurately assessing their positive areas and areas for improvement inspite being on online. I feel that Bhumika has received a high quality education through her years at St.Francis, She has shown good growth both socially and intellectually. This growth has been largely the result of good teachers in the classroom as well as the wide variety of activities in which the students participate on virtual platform. During my visits to the school for parent – teacher meet in 2019, they organized school activities and presentations, my impression has been that the teachers genuinely care for the students. They show a tremendous interest in the growth and success of their students. Their interest in their students is plain for anyone to see during any parent – teacher or student – teacher interaction. My daughter would not have learnt as much as she has without the interest and concern of her teachers. For non-scholastic activities, my impression is equally positive. The bus drivers and attendants on the SFHS buses are different than many other bus companies that we see in India. They are very careful and show concern for the safety of the children. This was a major concern when my daughter first enrolled, but it was a pleasant surprise that SFHS employees are not like the rest of the drivers and attendants. They are careful always and I appreciate it. Overall my impression of the school is quite positive and I am glad that we chose to place our daughter in this school during our time in India. Our family has spoken very positively about our experience at school anytime that the discussion of schooling has come up within our circle of friends and associates.
