These are strictly TAKE OUT FUNDRAISERS and valid ONLY at the BurgerIM location in Pleasant Hill – 2380 Monument Blvd, at the Crossroads Shopping Center.
Feel free to tell your family & friends! This is a great opportunity to support a local business that wants to support our school!
Pictures Request
The Yearbook Crew needs your help! We would like to include this unprecedented time in your children’s education in this year’s yearbook. We would greatly appreciate it if you could take pictures of your child/ren while they are learning at home and send them to yearbook@sfafalcons.org. Thank you!

Dear Falcons,
I wanted to share this quick post with you. This is one of my good friends! Her husband is an emergency physician and he just finished publishing this sweet children’s book titled I Love When You’re Close and When You’re Far Away. All proceeds will be given to getusppe.org to help raise funds for personal protective gear for frontline health workers.
She wrote, “Inspired by the challenges of explaining to our two year old daughter why we can’t visit grandparents right now, the book teaches children that they’re still loved by family–even if from a distance. Check it out on Amazon in paperback or ebook.”
Link to paperback and ebook:
I already bought my copy and can’t wait to read it! Check it out!
Love,
Miss Marcinkowski

Nut-Free School
Due to the severe, sudden, and life-threatening nature of peanut & tree nut allergies, St. Francis of Assisi School is a NUT-FREE school environment. No peanuts or nuts are allowed on campus at any time nor at any school-sponsored events- on or off campus. Thank you for supporting our proactive policy.
