St Frances Cabrini School in Lakewood

Posted: February 8, 2026

This is my daughter's first year in the Pre-K (4) program. She had a difficult time with transitions during daycare, so I thought the jump to a school program would be almost impossible. The teacher assured me that within 2 months, she would be fine with drop-offs. I am so happy to report that within 1 month, she was handling drop-offs like a little champion. I attribute this to the teacher's experience with children her age, but also her confidence. Fast forward to 5 months later, my daughter is absolutely thriving, has comes leaps and bounds in her ability to be a student. What I love about St Francis is that it feels like a community. All of the staff I have had contact with show genuine care and interest in my daughter. And I can tell she knows she is loved there. Another bonus, they've added Spanish lessons for her age group which is absolutely fabulous. She's proud to be learning a new language. All in all, I am very thankful for this experience, the community and all of the opportunities St Francis Cabrini offers. I believe she will have a great school experience, thanks to their values.

My son loves St. Frances Cabrini! He is in his first year there. The teachers are great, the faculty are great, the other families are great. You really feel like you are part of something special here! We also really like the faith based virtues that are taught at the school too. (Respect, Integrity, others)

SFC is a wonderful school with a truly welcoming community. The teachers, staff, and faculty are warm, supportive, and genuinely invested in their students. My child loves attending school here and has built meaningful friendships over the years. I especially appreciate the smaller setting, which allows for more individualized, one-on-one attention and a strong academic focus. We have had a very positive experience and highly recommend SFC.

St Frances Cabrini has been a blessing for our child. The staff and teachers are very warm and welcoming, making everyone feel like a part of the Cabrini family. The education is excellent. Academically, my child has learned so much since beginning at Cabrini. They also teach and instill great values here, such as being kind, courteous, and helpful. There doesn't seem to be any bullying here, and I love that other kids know and say hello to my child even though they are not in the same grade/classroom. If you are looking for a excellent school that will care for your child while taking a holistic approach to education, look no further!

St. Frances Cabrini is great school! My daughter loves attending this school and feels like shes part of a big family. The school hold the students to high academic and behavioral standards. As a parent, its nice being able to be involved in my daughters school and get to know all of the teachers as well as other parents. I love that the principal has an open door policy and quickly addresses any concerns or questions I might have. I highly recommend St. Frances Cabrini School for your family!

I am so impressed with the dedication this faculty has to their students. The faith-based atmosphere is prevalent, and the academics challenge children to do their best. The students are polite and thoughtful. It's a GREAT place to be!

St. Frances Cabrini School's teachers do a fantastic job ensuring each child is not left behind in education. The small class teacher-to-student ratio makes a big difference in academic excellence. The Catholic faith, uniforms, small class ratio, and positive discipline create a perfect learning environment for a child. Traditional Catholic education shall bring the child and family closer to God. The PreK 3 and PreK 4 programs are the best because they prepare them for kindergarten. The students are well prepared to advance into High School with high educational academic habits. The school is blessed to have an amazing Principal, teachers, and staff.

An armed man once jumped the fence while kids were at lunch recess and the school authorities took him at his word that he had heard a shooting in the target parking lot and he was coming to the school to protect the kids. This man was then thanked by the police for his heroism and kept his weapon. There was no shooting. My student told me that same day, the principal sent a formal statement out almost a week later and downplayed everything.

A letter was sent home to parents 2 weeks before the end of the school year telling them if they didn't pay their tuition off by the end of the week their kids wouldn't be allowed to attend the final week, the tuition would be sent to collection, and the student wouldn't be allowed to attend the following year. Not very Catholic.

My daughter started attending St. Frances Cabrini Catholic School about six months ago, and I have seen incredible growth in her mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. She loves working with Ms. Delgado, Ms. Huerta, and Mrs. Herrera. She is eager to share everything she has learned daily with the family. She has also formed friendships with her classmates, which has enriched her experience there. We are so happy with everything that our son (who is not yet of school age) will be joining SFC soon.
We look forward to our time at SFC.

We have been with St. Frances Cabrini Catholic School for three years and have loved every minute of it! The teachers and staff are like family; they strive to know all the children and parents and show genuine care. The children are close and friendly with each other, even across many different grade levels. The curriculum is enriching, and the faith-based values ensure our children are growing and learning in the best environment possible. We love SFC School and feel loved in return.

This is our son's first year at Cabrini and we couldn't be more pleased with the choice to transfer him from public school. He was able to easily transition and made new friends quickly. You can tell the staff and admin genuinely care about the student's academic success and overall well-being.

Our children have attended SFC since the 2017-2018 school year. We love this school and being a part of this school and parish community. We became members of SFC parish in 2017 as well.

The quality of education and experience of the teachers is unmatched; many have taught at SFC for decades and their enthusiasm for their students and caring is evident in everything they do.

Additionally, we have an amazing music curriculum this year (2022-2023) with the addition of Puget Sound Arts Academy instructors and support. The school has a helpful before-and-after care program for working parents and supports military families.

There are a variety of after-school activities from cross country to Spanish club, art, and Bricks for Kidz programs.

The school administration is consistently striving to improve the facility and resources for teachers and families. The curriculum is focused on Catholic values and Christ-centered. I would not choose to send my children anywhere else. I just wish they had a summer long camp!

This is my daughters first year at St. Frances Cabrini School after attending public school for several years. Were so happy we made the switch because its been such a positive experience for her! Academically, the students are held to high standards and are motivated to do their best work. The school is a welcoming and nurturing environment. Discipline is handled fairly and promptly and bullying is not tolerated. The teachers and staff truly embody the schools theme of Amorevolezza which means loving care.

We are a new family to this school, but we have been impressed by the quality of the academics, and the warmth of the teachers, staff, and other students. Older kids even know my child by name as they pass him in the hall! Our child is enjoying the after-school activities like Lego class and the upcoming art class. The Kindergarten class has two teachers (one primary and one aide) and we get regular photos and updates within the ClassDojo app. The homework is fun and challenging. The learning units have been unique and creative (like Christmas celebrated around the world). We feel very welcomed and known as a family at Cabrini.

When we originally enrolled our children at St Frances Cabrini School 4 years ago it was an easy choice. From the first walk down the school hall, we witnessed active learning happening in every class. The students we encountered were friendly, engaging, and respectful which is exactly what we wanted to encourage in our own children. In the past 4 years we have witnessed upgraded curriculum in every subject area, a chrome book issued to each student for integrated learning, the addition of a full arts program (music, visual arts, and drama), and an explosion of afterschool enrichment opportunities. The teachers and administration know each child by name and really care about their academic, social, and spiritual growth as individuals. We love St Frances Cabrini School !

St. Frances Cabrini
Pre-Kindergarten is such a loving and caring environment for our children and our family. Both our boys have had the opportunity to grow academically, socially, and spiritually. We feel truly blessed to have wonderful teachers and a safe environment for our kids.

Some could complain that the homework load is too much. However, learning to perform in a tough school environment is good for student development. If I wanted my kids in public school coasting along I would have chosen that route.

Posted: May 6, 2016

The school values the merits of faith, integrity, and love. This is mainly due to the religious foundations of the school

Posted: May 6, 2016

This school is passionate about developing students to be the best that they can be. I love the community dynamics and the overall commitment to provide a strong education for each student.

This is our first year at Saint Frances Cabrini School and it has been a big adjustment for both of my boys who are in 7th and 8th Grade. This is a positive comment as the school is so academically challenging. Starting the year, both boys were behind and their teachers worked with us to get them caught up and at grade level. I'm happy to say that they are doing so much better and it is due to the time and attention given to them by their teachers. Their math teacher, Mr. McCarthy, has a reputation as one of the best math teachers in the Catholic School system in this area. I can't tell you how many times going to appointments etc in town, I have met people whose children went to Cabrini. They always mention how well their children due in Math and they attribute it to Mr. McCarthy. Mrs. Sanchez is great as well. My one son, who hates to read came home one day saying, "Mom, today was the best day ever in English. I had so much fun". This was due to one of the creative projects she assigns her class. This is my families 5th school in five years, due to frequent moves and I can honestly say it is one of the best we have attended.

After teachers expressed concern about my son, I had him assessed by healthcare professionals for any developmental/learning or psychological issues. After going through this process 3 times and recieving clean bills of health, they still refuse to accept the doctors findings (Madigan Army Medical Center) and insist that I use their doctor. I was told by my sons teacher if I don't medicate him it would affect his grade. The staff refuses to speak with me return phone calls/emails. My son has been targeted by the teacher which is supported by the principal. They ignore reports that my son was hit by another student. I can go on and on. This school acts like they are incharge of the parents and they know whats best for your child despite what you or the doctors say. Academically its good, but life is better if you just quietly comply and understand that they are in charge of you and your child and will do nothing to work with you as a parent.
