St. Francis Xavier Preparatory School

St. Francis Xavier Preparatory School has received a nearly $250,000 bequest from the estate of Kathleen Roche Madison. Mrs. Madison was a parishioner at St. Francis Xavier Church since 1969. A Eucharistic Minister at the church, she served as president of the church’s Women’s Guild for seven years.

On Friday, March 19 and Saturday, March 20 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, March 21 at 2 p.m., nearly 90 students in grades five through eight will perform in SFXP’s production of Disney’s High School Musical JR.

All performances will be at Pope John Paul II High School. Based on the hit Disney Channel Original Movie, this song and dance filled story is sure to please audience members of all ages.

Congratulations to the following SFXP alumni and current Boston College High School students, who achieved academic honors this past semester.

High Honors: Eric J. Risley '10, Tyler L. Boule '11, and Jarrod J. Risley '13 of West Barnstable;

St. Francis Xavier Preparatory School currently is accepting applications for admission for grade five in the 2010 – 2011 academic year.  Limited openings are anticipated for grade six.

The application process involves three essential steps.  First, students and their parents must complete an application form.  Second, current school records, which include standardized testing, must be received.  Finally, an admissions interview will be scheduled.  All applicants who complete this process by March 31, will hear of the admission decision by April 10. 

Admission is competitive and waiting lists are anticipated. If you would like to learn more about our school, or schedule a day for your child to visit, please call our office at 508-771-7200.

Because we have begun our admissions process, we wanted to provide all parents- current and prospective -with a clear understanding of how financial aid works at SFXP.  The procedure is simple:

First, any parent seeking aid must apply to the St. Mary’s Education Fund fund by the Diocese of Fall River.
