== History ==
On April 28, 1874, Emma Franziska Höll (Sister Mary Alexia) and two other nuns arrived in New Cassel from Schwarzach, in the German Empire, to establish a new religious congregation. They built a boarding school in New Cassel, and would in subsequent years built other facilities in WIsconsin, including a mission for Chippewa Indians in Reserve, Wisconsin and what would eventually become the SSSF motherhouse in Milwaukee.〔"Höll, Emma Franziska" in, Litoff, Judy Barrett and Judith McDonnell, eds. ''European Immigrant Women in the United States: A Biographical Dictionary'' New York: Garland, 1994; pp. 143-144.〕 Many women joined the community and by 1887 sisters staffed schools in five states.
In light of its German heritage, the SSSF were very effective in ministering to the German immigrant population in the region. Members of the congregation from a Polish background decided to establish a separate congregation to address the educational needs of children of Polish immigrants. Forty-six sisters left to form the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Third Order of St. Francis.〔(SSJ-TOSF )〕
