The St. Francis de Sales Work Study Program provides students tremendous access to opportunity. It affords families the ability to not only afford a private, Catholic high school education that prepares them to attend and succeed at great universities, but also the opportunity to gain valuable life and work experiences in a professional setting. The SFDS Work Study Program is hosted by the Southeast Side Experience Incubator which launched in fall of 2022.

How it Works
The St. Francis de Sales High School Work Study Program is a part of the full educational curriculum. Students academic schedules are modified so that students can work in their assigned jobs. Work Study hours provide students an enriched learning experience.
