Dear Xavier Families,
The final day of classes for our freshmen, sophomores, and juniors is officially in the books. It is hard to believe how quickly the school year has gone by. We are incredibly proud of all that our Falcons have accomplished in the classroom, on the field, on the stage, and out in the community.
Final Exams begin next week, and we encourage all families to review the exam schedule that was emailed earlier this week. A reminder that students are dismissed at 11:35 a.m. on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday during exams, and 10:00 a.m. on Thursday. Buses will run on their regular routes at 11:35 each day.
Yesterday, we gathered as a school community to celebrate our final Mass of the academic year. Sharing in the Eucharist one last time before summer break reminded us of the strength and spirit of our Xavier brotherhood and the faith that anchors our mission.
Last night, we also welcomed the families of our incoming Class of 2029 for Parent Information Night. It is always exciting to meet the newest members of our Xavier family and begin introducing them to the people, policies, and values that define our school. A reminder for those families that Course Exemption Exams will take place on campus tomorrow, Saturday.
As we head into summer, do not forget to explore our growing lineup of summer school and summer camp programs. From academics to athletics to the arts, there is something for every student. We are looking forward to a lively and energetic campus in the months ahead. Find the best fit for your son and register today.
We wish all of our students the very best as they prepare for final exams next week.
