Current freshman. So far don’t regret my decision at all. On top of great academics it’s so easy to make friends. Everyone is very accepting. Not just that, there is so much to get involved in with many clubs and lots of sports offered. Definitely recommend putting it in your applications.

I had two sons attend Saint Xavier HS. Both graduated with honors and were well prepared for college placement tests, scoring in the 99th percentile on their ACT & SAT tests. Your son will get a world class education here. The faculty is top notch and the strong curriculum will challenge your son. There are numerous sports and extra-curricular activities for your son to participate in. St. Xavier embraces the values of diversity and inclusion. It's fair to say my sons were introverted when they first attended but found their niche and flourished at this school. You do not need to be Catholic to attend and Catholicism is not pushed. Strong alumni support provides the students with all a top notch facility and the materials they need to succeed. The campus learning environment is stimulating and competitive. My sons came in as boys for self and graduated as a men for others. The tuition is a bit steep, however your son's education is work it. St. Xavier participates in Ohio's Ed Choice Scholarship Program. Some of the reviews on here are from those that never attended. Please keep that fact in mind when considering where to send them to High School.

Top notch school in all aspects. It is extremely difficult, competitive and will push your child more than they would ever expect to be pushed. My graduating class had 250 students. All 250 students continued their education in college. We produced over 30 National Honor Society students and produced over 100 academic and athletic college scholarships of the 250 graduates that year. I wouldnt consider sending my own children anywhere else in the country.

My son shadowed at this school two times, we also visited for other events. My husband and his siblings went to St X so we were giving it a chance. We were encouraging our son to accept going to St X at one point. My son felt completely lost and over whelmed in the environment at St X.. Additionally, we were looking for an experience which would challenge our son, after receiving a 97th percentile on the hspt and an A average student in a Catholic middle scbool...we were initially thinking this school would be a perfect fit. Yes, my husband loved his high school experience at St X.. St X has changed. . St X now has a reputation for being an athletic powerhouse, allowing all level students in and many, many students. If you would like a more individualized Catholic education keep searching. We chose another local catholic high school which would promote our sons individuality.

I am a current junior at St. X. After my short time here, I don't regret going here at all. The academics are tough, but that just makes us better, stronger, more academically prepared men. But more importantly, this school teaches us how to be the best men we can be. It challenges our character by putting us into situations (sometimes uncomfortable ones, like helping out and hanging out with disabled children) that allows us to grow into men for others, people who help out others, no matter what. These challenges are what define us. This school teaches us to turn uncomfortable situations into opportunities to help out the world, and to discover our character. On top of that, St. X students form a bond that lasts a lifetime. It sounds clich , but I am a part of a brotherhood, and St. Xavier has greatly improved my life, but it all depends on the effort of the student.
