Community Service As we said goodbye to the class of 2023, we were able to recognize the students who made the "Men for Others" motto a big part of their St. X career. Even though there is no service hour requirement here, we announced to the school the recipients of two service-based awards. The first award, the Men for Others Spirit Award, was given to 34 students who faithfully served in at least four St. X service activities. The next award, the Fr. Pedro Arrupe Service Award, was given to six graduating seniors who faithfully served in seven or more St. X community service award. |

Football Program Endowment The goal of the current campaign is to fully endow the football program at a cost of $5.8 million. We have raised close to $1.2 without an official campaign. The locker room renovation is the "official kick-off" to the campaign. We initially raised $750k for the renovation. The total for the project is $1.5M so we are working on raising the additional $750k. Once the renovation is secured, we will put everything toward the endowment. The fundraising component of the campaign consists of three options: 1) Naming rights to areas in the locker room (payable over a 5–7-year pledge): - Large Team Room - 200k
- Head Coaches Office - 200k
- Smaller Team Room - 150k
- Two staff rooms - each at 50k
- Coaches Locker Room - 50k
2) Family donations starting at 10k (payable over a 5–7-year pledge). - Names listed on a large donor wall in the renovated locker room.
3) Locker sponsorships at $1250.00. https://www.stxavier.org/footballlockerpledge - Locker sponsorships are open to anyone that played, coached, or served as a manager the $1250.00 is payable over a five-year pledge to accommodate anyone's financial situation the goal is to recreate the history of the Long Blue Line.
