Thank you to all who stepped aboard for our Genesis Open House on November 15th, 2025. It was a pleasure welcoming prospective families to campus and sharing what makes life aboard the Clipper ship so special. While Open House has sailed for this year, there are still many chances to chart a course to Xaverian. We invite you to explore other visit opportunities and experience our community firsthand. Please note that the Genesis Open House returns each year in November.
