Xavier Catholic Schools foster a deep spiritual life by encouraging a love for the Eucharist and promoting regular worship through Mass at school and in the parish. The school emphasizes building a relationship with Jesus through prayer and the sacraments, while also teaching the Catholic faith and worldview in all aspects of education. Daily prayer and acts of stewardship are integral to their formation, nurturing a community that lives out the Gospel.
Xavier Catholic School students are encouraged and guided to explore, deepen & share their faith. Students are presented with a curriculum that is designed to prepare them for the next steps in their journey.
Students are guided to develop their gifts—spiritual, intellectual, physical, and social—in service to others, loving all people as children of God.
