“We were seeking a Progressive school for our children – a safe and enriching environment to cultivate their interests. Francis Parker has surpassed our expectations, not only providing thoughtful and targeted instruction, but also a diverse community of teachers and parents dedicated to our children’s future. We continue to advocate for this community as we watch our children grow into compassionate and insightful citizens.”

– Kirk, Middle School Parent

Francis Parker School of Louisville is an Independent, Progressive School serving Preschool 2s – 12th grade students on two campuses in Louisville and Goshen, Kentucky. As a Progressive School, we are dedicated to critical thinking and intellectual curiosity. It is a place where students learn how to think, not what to think.

Name Change Process

Spurred by the strong recommendation of Independent Schools Management, the St. Francis School Board of Trustees voted unanimously to explore the possibility of a name change. The Board formed a diverse, 30-member Task Force to gather information, listen to all our constituencies, and make a thoughtful, reasoned recommendation based on the input we receive. After nearly a year-long process, we are pleased to announce that effective July 1, 2022 St. Francis School is now Francis Parker School of Louisville.
