St Xavier High School

Ya know the old saying "You'll miss *any school* once you graduate"? Well that definitely applies here. At Saint Xavier each and every boy is treated with the respect and mentorship they need in order to be shaped into the man they want to be. I witnessed all of the staff and teachers as friendly, respectful, kind, and caring. Along with my studies St. X is in the top of the nation. Overall was a great Xperience and wish I could go back.

This school taught me everything from foreign languages to the intangible stuff one learns from being surrounded by teachers, coaches, and people of character who want to help you succeed in life. The staff is genuine, and they even take pay cuts compared to public school teacher salaries just to stay working with the kids who they are invested in. My four years at Saint Xavier molded me into a respectable young man, and I am forever thankful for the experiences and friendships that I have because of this school. Best learning experience in the city hands down. Class of 2011

As a 1975 graduate, I continue to be blown away by the magnitude of accomplishment this school continues to achieve. When parents have asked me should they save for high school or college, I always reply "high school - and if they have a son, send them to X". Upon graduation, college will pose no problem. Even today, I still walk a little taller when I visit the campus. We Are St. X!

Definitely one of the greatest schools in the Louisville area. The values that St. Xavier High School instill in to its students is fundamental and sets an example for achieving greatness in and out of the school. St. Xavier has pushed me to succeed and has allowed me to develop my self-discipline towards striving for success and having a high level of work ethic. The staff of St. X is one of the focal points of the school as a whole. There are extraordinarily talented teachers who value character, grit, and all of the Xaverian values. Great school!

1991 Grad who values what I received from the school. So I sent my son, who will graduate 2017. He has had many of the same teachers that I had years ago. It is the best school and the only choice for those who want to see their boys grow into great men.

As an alumni, I can safely say this was both the best money I have ever spent in academia, bar none, in my life as well as the most rigorous and demanding experience. They have a tough program that has been the equal to or exceeded standards of almost every College or school I have had experience with or heard of. And more than scholastic learning will be the education in life and conduct that a young man who attends this school will receive. As a multi-year veteran of Fire and EMS services, the life lessons and values taught here have done more to advance my career and life than almost anything else. So much of what I accomplish I owe to this school, and teachers and mentors there like Brother Driscoll and their now Principal, Frank Espinosa and others. To put it simply - There exists not a single better school in the Kentuckiana region for preparing a young man for life's challenges, and I'd scarcely believe in a better one anywhere in the country.

Spent four years of my life being abused by rich white kids, and picked on and abused by teachers. I actually have PTSD just from this. Had a meeting with administration / Dean of students at the time, with no adult, parent, or guardian present. I was told that I could not switch classes because of my grade in class. I still remember everything and can point out many teachers. Religion should be no excuse for child abuse. Parents wasted a lot of money. Class of ’99’

Wonderful comradary among students and faculty, and among faculty, parents and students. This school has produced high achieving well mannered young men we are all proud of.

Loved my four years there 2010-2014. Extraordinary staff and facilities. Great choice in high schools, the best in the area for sure.

Amazing school for young men to learn and grow.
