St. Francis De Sales Regional Catholic School

St. Francis de Sales Regional Catholic School is a Roman Catholic middle school in Herkimer, New York. It is the only Catholic school in Herkimer County. The current school principal is Sister Rosalie J. Kelley, a member of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet.

The school was originally included Kindergarten through Grade 8. In 1999, the school expanded, allowing for a Pre-Kindergarten to be set up. After the 2005-06 academic year, the school was contracted, eliminating Grades 7 and 8 due to lack of enrollment. The school currently operates as a Pre-K through Grade 6 middle school.

Athletics

St. Francis de Sales also has a basketball team. Organized in 1997-98, home games are played on the court in the St. Francis de Sales Parish Center in Herkimer, New York. The St. Francis Patriots are members of the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) basketball program. Teams are formed by age and gender for grades 3 through 6. Before the school's contraction, the 7th and 8th graders together had a team. The CYO season runs through the winter months.

The best overall year for the St. Francis 7th and 8th grade team came in the 2000-01 season, when the team made it to the CYO Central New York Championship game against St. John's of New Hartford. After three overtimes, the Patriots fell to St. John's. They did not reach the championship game in any other year after that.
