[edit] official song
All hail thee, bold and empowered souls
Journey with me, and we will see
That hard work, and diligence
Will bequeath thee, with health, wealth, and dreams.

The Francis Howell North Knights are home to only one official athletic team state championship, the 1991 wrestling team. The high school's newspaper, The North Star, has also earned many national awards.[1]
[edit] History
After Francis Howell High School alone could no longer support the burgeoning population of its part of St. Charles County in 1983, Francis Howell North was built on Hackmann Road on the border of the cities of St. Charles and St. Peters. A third high school (Francis Howell Central) was built in 1997.
A stabbing at the school on January 9, 2007 sent two teenage girls to the hospital.[2]
