Virtual School Open House

Despite the challenges of a global pandemic and a snowstorm in northeast Ohio, support for St. Francis Xavier School was in full force during this week’s #weGiveCatholic campaign. We are incredibly thankful for you, profoundly humbled by the outpouring of generosity, and completely awed by all of the good works that are to come for our school because we came together as one Navigator family on Giving Tuesday.
During our 24-hour campaign, 620 donors gave a total of $86,845!  Right up until the late hours of Tuesday night, generous hearts were supporting our school’s day-of-giving.  Please accept our heartfelt deep gratitude for all you did to make this a remarkable day for our Navigator community!
Please watch this video message from our principal, Mrs. Danene Beal.
