On Tuesday, Nov. 23, 2021, a Mass of Remembrance will be celebrated for the deceased members of our school family.
St. Francis Xavier School has provided a foundation of solid faith and excellent academics for many students throughout the years. It is with grateful and prayerful hearts that we offer a special Mass for our faithfully departed faculty, staff, and alumni.
How to be involved:
Please send along the names of any deceased alumni, with their graduation year and date of death by filling out and submitting the form linked here, and their souls will be prayed for in a special way on 11/23.
**Please note that the names of our alumni who have passed within the last year will be remembered and prayed for by name… all others will be prayed for throughout the Mass as well as by those attending our adoration chapel during the day.
Thank you for your continued prayers for our school…and please be assured of our prayers for all of you!

The announcement of the transfer of Father Williams has become a bittersweet reality for our school community. We will certainly miss Father Williams, and are grateful for the past 4 years we have enjoyed with him as a part of our school community! It was very nice of Father Williams to invite Father Healy for a visit to the school at the end of the 2020-2021 school year, so students and faculty could get to meet him in-person.
Join us in welcoming Fr. Healy to our school community!

Health and Wellness

More information to follow pertaining to what the coming school year will look and feel like, along with Daily Wellness Checks and keeping our kids out of school if they are not feeling well!
Thank you for your interest in our wonderful Preschool through Grade 8 school community!
Traditionally we welcome new families at our Open House at registration time each year for student-led tours; and invite students to spend-a-day. Given the current reality, that is unfortunately not possible. We wanted to connect with potential families in a way that gives you a sense for our school community as you look to enroll your son or daughter, and look forward to getting to know all our families through the application process. In the meantime…
We hope you enjoy this glimpse into St. Francis.
