Home Page Feature Image How to Remove Category

I’m helping someone with an existing site that is making use of the BAYLEAF theme.

How can I eliminate ‘category titles’ from attaching to the ‘Feature Image’ on the HOME page?

On the post page it helps if I ‘uncheck’ the categories, but the way it was setup it seems the category identified as “FRONT Page” has to be checked in order for the Feature Image to show up in the HOME Page, but it also places in the ‘featured image’ box text that says “Front Page”. I’d like to have a ‘featured image’ without any added text. Is this possible, and how can this be managed?

Thanks
