The School Sisters of the Third Order of St Francis is a Roman Catholic religious order for women. An international Franciscan community of more than 1,100 sisters and associates, the order was founded in 1874. The mother house is in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Milwaukee.
Among other works, the order devotes itself to Catholic elementary school education, such as at St. Anne School of the St. Anne Catholic Community in Barrington, Illinois.
