Overview
St. Francis Xavier School, under the leadership of Jesus Christ, guarantees our students quality Catholic Education.
Our loving and caring community, involving teachers, parents and children, committed to spiritual and academic excellence, provides essential skills and values, resulting in knowledgeable active Christians, contributing to an everchanging world for the glory of God.
And St. Francis Xavier is doing something about the rising costs too and they prudently invest it with a Catholic perspective, and this returns interest annually that goes to support the school, narrowing the gap between costs and an affordable Catholic education.
St. Francis Xavier is a special place. If it weren't for the Foundation's help the Parish would need to support the School to make up all of the difference.
Harbor Light Christian School exists to prepare the next generation to be leaders for Christ, effective witnesses and world-changers.
