Dear Parents,
The clocks have moved up and we can begin to enjoy more daylight hours and the warmth ahead. I look forward to sharing information with you on my new
web page
that now features my regular stories and reflections along with strategic school initiatives.
Also, we have some exciting construction plans for Malden Catholic which will begin over spring break and continue throughout the summer. These improvement are designed to accommodate our growth over the next several years and also balance the facility offerings for our students. The construction will not interrupt classes or student activities in any way. Please see my
webinar
for the detailed information.
Thank you for your prayers and support,
John K. Thornburg
Headmaster

Good Deed Goes a Long Way

Every Tuesday after school, Axel ‘21 and his family create a homemade meal. Then, they pack it up and deliver the dish to Bread of Life in Malden where they serve dinners to those in need. Axel's lasagna has become a favorite dish and the community requests it over and over again.
Bread of Life is a faith-based ministry serving the communities north of Boston with a mission to feed the body and to nurture the soul. T
his MC student truly exemplifies the Xaverian values of humility and compassion and he strives
to feed the hungry, the homeless. Way to to go!
