Overview
At Xavier High School, students are challenged to excel across a range of academic levels, which are reflected on transcripts as AP (Advanced Placement®), H (Honors), A (Accelerated), and CP (College Prep). With a robust curriculum that includes 26 STEM courses, 19 AP classes, and 20 UConn Early College Experience (ECE) courses, Xavier provides an academic foundation that prepares students for success in college and beyond.
But there is nothing basic about a Xavier education—inside or outside the classroom.
Rooted in nearly 60 years of tradition and the rich legacy of the Xaverian Brothers, Xavier is one of Connecticut’s premier college-preparatory high schools. We draw students from nearly 70 cities and towns across the state, many of whom arrive knowing few classmates but graduate with lifelong friendships and a strong sense of brotherhood.
At the heart of Xavier’s excellence is its faculty—many of whom are veteran educators dedicated to inspiring students through innovative and engaging teaching. Here, learning is more than just coursework; it's a transformative experience that challenges young men to reach their full potential.
