Building Community Through Partnership and Connection
On June 30th, Xavier Jesuit Academy brought together families for an inspiring Parent Orientation night at the Xavier University Health United Building. The evening exemplified XJA's commitment to faith-filled community building and collaboration with our valued partner organizations.
Families had the opportunity to connect with key partners, including Beech Acres Parenting Center and OptimALL, organizations that share our dedication to supporting young men in their educational journey. These partnerships reflect XJA's commitment to providing comprehensive support that extends beyond the classroom.
Principal Chandler welcomed attendees and encouraged parents to complete any remaining paperwork while enjoying a meal graciously provided by the staff of Beech Acres Parenting Center. Mr. Gong outlined upcoming events that families can anticipate, including Meet the Teacher Night and the exciting two-week Summer Institute, which will begin soon.
Celebrating Summer Experiences
The evening's highlight came when returning students and their parents shared stories from their summer experiences. These moments of connection demonstrated the strong bonds within our XJA community and showcased how our students carry their faith and values beyond the school walls.
Students shared joyful reflections, with one noting how "God kept waking me up" – a beautiful testament to the faith-filled foundation that guides our young men. Others shared stories about family vacations, including trips to Florida, highlighting the importance of family time and the creation of lasting memories.
Several XJA students participated in St. Xavier High School's Companion Scholar programs over the summer, further embodying our commitment to being open to growth and intellectually competent. Their positive experiences with these programs demonstrate the strong network of Jesuit education that supports the development of our students.
Looking Forward
As we prepare for the upcoming academic year, events like Parent Orientation remind us that education at XJA is truly a community effort. Together with our partner organizations and dedicated families, we continue our mission of preparing young men to be leaders through disciplined academic preparation in the Catholic and Jesuit tradition.
The bonds formed during these gatherings strengthen our entire school community and reflect the caring and respectful atmosphere that defines the Xavier Jesuit Academy experience.
