Plans Unveiled—Celebrate 2021 will be a fun, interactive, virtual event!!

  • While many things have changed in 2020, the commitment and dedication of our staff and students hasn’t. We are unbelievably proud and grateful that our students can be learning in person. It is essential that we raise funds in order to continue the excellence of Xavier Catholic Schools. That need has prompted the decision to hold Celebrate on its original date of January 30, 2021, but in an interactive, virtual format. This won’t be a typical virtual event; we have an interactive evening planned and encourage small groups to safely gather for watch parties.  
  • Click here for a quick read explaining Celebrate overall and basic details for this year’s event and click here to go to the Celebrate Event Website.

Sponsors are always a pillar of our fundraising success. We have exciting plans to acknowledge our sponsors this year. Please consider supporting Celebrate in this way.


We still plan to have our traditional online silent auction and will also have a premium auction that will be online this year. Donations are needed and we hope you’ll consider donating!

  • All are invited to the next Celebrate Volunteer Meeting on Tuesday, November 17 at noon in the upstairs ballroom at Butte des Morts Country Club (we sit socially distanced with masks).
  • If you cannot attend meetings, but have ideas, please email Lisa at  lpfaff@XavierCatholicSchools.org

Senior Grad Ads for Yearbook
Parents of seniors should have received an e-mail yesterday with details about grad ads for the yearbook. We mistakenly omitted the flyer. Please click here for that important piece of information.

Volunteer Hours
Students are reminded that they need to volunteer for a minimum of 20 hours per year. Last year's hours, if not yet completed, must also be made up before beginning this year's hours. Of the at least 80 hours by graduation, 20 must be served at a parish.

If you are new to the school, be sure to set up your getnvolved.org account. Directions were sent over the summer or can be obtained from Mrs. Waters. If your child needs help setting up his or her account, he/she is encouraged to stop by Mrs. Waters' office for help.
