This would be the beginning of a long and prosperous life for them in this country, a life that was to be considerably brightened by the rise of Saint Xavier High School of Louisville as one of the nation's outstanding secondary schools. By 1864, the Brothers had moved to their fourth home, this time on 637 South Fourth Street.
The Xaverian Brothers Sponsored Schools is a network of Roman Catholic secondary schools who share a common mission and a similar governance structure. Most of the Xaverian Brothers Sponsored Schools trace their origin directly to the Congregation of the Brothers of St. Francis Xavier (Xaverian Brothers) and its mission of evangelization through the ministry of education.
Founded in 1864, Saint Xavier High School is a Xaverian Brother, Catholic college preparatory school for boys in grades 9-12. In addition to academic excellence, St. X has established itself as an athletic powerhouse in the region. Our 54 acre campus, located in the heart of Louisville, is easily accessible from I-64, I-65, I-71, I-265 and I-264.
Saint Xavier High School is governed by an all-volunteer Board of Directors. Our Advisors, Alumni Association, Parents' Association and Gala committees all rely on volunteer leadership. Additionally, classroom proctors help fill the void while teachers are bettering themselves through professional development and on student retreats.
St. X is one among 50 private schools and 279 public schools that received the honor. National Blue Ribbon Schools are on education's cutting edge, pioneering innovative educational practices from professional learning communities and project-based learning to social and emotional learning and positive behavior systems.

As a 1975 graduate, I continue to be blown away by the magnitude of accomplishment this school continues to achieve. When parents have asked me should they save for high school or college, I always reply "high school - and if they have a son, send them to X". Upon graduation, college will pose no problem. Even today, I still walk a little taller when I visit the campus. We Are St. X!

As an alumni, I can safely say this was both the best money I have ever spent in academia, bar none, in my life as well as the most rigorous and demanding experience. They have a tough program that has been the equal to or exceeded standards of almost every College or school I have had experience with or heard of.
And more than scholastic learning will be the education in life and conduct that a young man who attends this school will receive. As a multi-year veteran of Fire and EMS services, the life lessons and values taught here have done more to advance my career and life than almost anything

Definitely one of the greatest schools in the Louisville area. The values that St. Xavier High School instill in to its students is fundamental and sets an example for achieving greatness in and out of the school.
St. Xavier has pushed me to succeed and has allowed me to develop my self-discipline towards striving for success and having a high level of work ethic.
The staff of St. X is one of the focal points of the school as a whole. There are extraordinarily talented teachers who value character, grit, and all of the Xaverian values.
Great school!👌🏼

Spent four years of my life being abused by rich white kids, and picked on and abused by teachers. I actually have PTSD just from this. Had a meeting with administration / Dean of students at the time, with no adult, parent, or guardian present. I was told that I could not switch classes because of my grade in class. I still remember everything and can point out many teachers. Religion should be no excuse for child abuse.
Parents wasted a lot of money.
