Xavier High School is a private, Catholic coeducational college preparatory school high school run by the US East Province of the Society of Jesus on the island of Weno in Chuuk, Federated States of Micronesia. It was established by the Jesuits in 1952. It was the first high school in the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. Bishop Thomas Feeney, S.J., D.D. from the New York Province of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) originally envisioned a minor seminary to train local clergy. Soon after, Xavier Seminary became the first college preparatory school in the Western Pacific.
The mission of Xavier High School is to educate students to become competent, conscientious, and compassionate leaders whose lives are guided by the Christian call to service.
Today, Xavier High School continues to provide a college preparatory education as a Catholic school in the Jesuit tradition, serving the different island nations of Micronesia. Xavier has produced Gates scholars, the first recipient of the Ushiba Scholarship to Sophia University in Japan, and appointments to the U.S. Service Academies.[2]
