With this in mind, the Guidance & Counseling Department will again offer the optional six-week group for freshman.  This group meets once a week during rotating class periods.  The group, run by counselors Mrs. Rupp and Ms. Sullivan, offers freshmen the opportunity to meet new people, to learn more about St. Francis and ask questions in a small, non-threatening environment.  The second component to the freshman group is to help students work on study skills and test taking techniques.  Group size is limited and registration is required.  The freshman group will begin at the end of August.

Contact Info: For more information on this group or on any of the other support groups available at St. Francis, contact Mrs. Rupp at ext 104 or email at arupp@sfhsnet.org .  Sign-Up Deadline is Aug. 29th.
