Reminder: End of the Year Lunch Account Information |
|
With the school year drawing to a close, lunch accounts for all students need to be monitored closely so that they do not have negative balances.
For seniors:
- If they have a credit balance and have a sibling here at Xavier, the money will be transferred to the sibling’s account, otherwise, a refund will be given to the seniors before the senior breakfast on May 20, 2022.
-
If you have automatic payments set up through EZSchoolpay.com into your senior student’s account, you will need to go in and stop the automatic payments. Please do this before the week of May 17, as that is the week accounts will be refunded.

The Iowa High School Music Association, Iowa High School Speech Association, Iowa High School Athletic Association and the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union, have implemented a "Family Week" on the Unified Activities Calendar. “Family Week” is a week in the unified activity calendar that prohibits any coach or teacher/student contact and any unified activity federation event from occurring. That period will be Sunday through Sunday of week 4 and Week 5 of the calendar and will begin July 24, 2022 through July 31, 2022. All high school students, including incoming 9th graders, are covered under the rule and are not to have contact (on or off school premises) with coaches, directors, or moderators nor use school facilities during this week. The Xavier Activities Office will be closed this week as well.

Reminder: Attendance as the Year Winds Down |
|
As we get close to the end of the year, and particularly as we get close to finals for seniors, we ask for your help in doing all that you can to ensure that your students make every effort to attend classes throughout the remainder of the semester. While it may be difficult to decline a request from your student, particularly a senior student, to "call in" for them, we ask that you help us maintain a sense of academic purpose.
Despite what your student may tell you, there is no school approved "skip day" at any time during the year. We count on your partnership with us and on your integrity when faced with those requests from your students.
Thanks for all you do to help us ensure that your students stay focused on their studies!
