Programs
Preschool Program
St. Francis Xavier School provides a three and four year old developmental preschool program. Three year old
children have two half-day classes each week; four year old students have three half-day classes each week.
Our program consists of play and socialization skills with exposure to learning skills as children exhibit a
readiness for such work. Emphasis is placed on the individual.
Kindergarten
Our kindergarten program is both developmental (allowing children to develop socially through interaction),
and academic (introducing the children to formal reading and math skills). Our basic kindergarten program
is augmented by the children's participation in prayer services and in the physical education, music and
art programs.
School Athletics
The Athletic Committee administers a comprehensive athletic program and is responsible for all aspects of
the sports program. This committee works with the school in assuring that student participants maintain
good academic standings.
The purpose of our athletic program is to promote good sportsmanship among our students; to develop the
abilities of each participant, and to help the students develop a sense of pride in themselves, their team(s),
and their school.
Students in good standing may choose to participate in our interscholastic athletic program in grades five
through eight. The following sports are part of our program:
- Girls - Basketball, volleyball, cross county and cheer leading
- Boys - Football, basketball and cross country
- The fifth grade program is an instructional program.
