History
Our preschool is dedicated to serving the Evergreen community of San Jose and beyond. The idea originated in 1995 as a means of responding to the needs of young families in Evergreen area. That idea was realized in 2003 when the doors of St. Francis opened. Today, St. Francis Preschool has grown into a solid educational foundation for our community. The testimonies of our former parents prove when our children graduated, they were ready for the challenges of the neighboring kindergartens.
