✨ Looking Back on an Amazing Year ✨

As we reflect on the 2025-26 school year, we are grateful for the memories, friendships, accomplishments, and faith-filled moments that made this year so special.

Thank you to our students, families, faculty, and staff for making it a year to remember. 💙

💙 What It Means to Be a Falcon 💙

At SFX, we strive to live our values each day through faith, respect, service, leadership, and excellence.

These values guide our students both inside and outside the classroom as they grow into compassionate and responsible leaders. ✨

💙 Middle School Service Hours Reminder 💙

Incoming 6th graders and new middle school students should keep track of all summer service hours, including dates, activities, hours completed, and supervisor information. ✨

Thank you for continuing to serve our community this summer!

☀️ Happy Summer Break, Falcons! ☀️

Wishing all of our SFX families a fun, safe, and relaxing summer filled with memories, laughter, and time together. 💙

We can’t wait to welcome everyone back to campus in August!
