Xavier High School May E-News

Message from the Director of Alumni & Development:

Since early February, Greg Jaskot and I have been sending out personalized appeal letters to members of the Classes of 1967 to 2019. The final mailing went out the first week of April.

To date, we have received contributions from nearly 200 alumni totaling more than $180,000! I know there are many more of you who intend to support your alma mater this year but have not gotten around to it yet. Just a reminder that the fiscal year for Xavier High School ends on June 30, 2024. Please fill out your pledge envelope today and mail your tax-deductible donation or go on the school web site and do it electronically. Less than 2 months left to get it in! 

Greg and I greatly appreciate any amount you can give to help Xavier continue to flourish and to help provide financial aid to families that otherwise would not be able to send their son(s) to this fabulous high school. Over 50% of our young men receive aid with the average award being $5,400. Tuition is now $17,500!

I look forward to receiving hundreds more contributions from those of you who greatly value your Xavier education. 

Sincere thanks,
Rich Feitel

XAVIER HIGH SCHOOL PRAYER - read at the close of school each day
Loving Father,
We ask you to protect the students, faculty and staff at Xavier High School.
Guide us to salvation by following the example of Jesus Christ, your Son.
Inspire us with your grace, to seek both academic success and spiritual wisdom as we use your gifts and talents in service to others.
Help us to find the strength and passion to be leaders and pioneers like Theodore James Ryken, the Xaverian Brothers and those who founded our school.
May we, in turn, accept the challenge to spread the Word of God and make the world a better place for all people.
We ask this, through Christ, our Lord. Amen
Saint Francis Xavier pray for us.
