What is Celebrate?
Celebrate is the premier fundraising event for Xavier Catholic Schools. Funds raised at Celebrate support the entire school system. Everyone is invited to attend, get involved, and support Celebrate. Read on to learn how to “light the way towards a better future” for Xavier Catholic Schools.
We are thrilled to welcome guests “back to the ballroom”! Celebrate 2022 is being planned as an in-person event on February 5, 2022 at the Fox Cities Exhibition Center. Appropriate precautions will be taken and there will still be a small virtual component this year, but our plan is to gather in person to Celebrate Xavier Catholic Schools and our amazing students and staff. There are many opportunities for you to “Light the Way” for our students and get involved.

Attend Celebrate
Click here to purchase admission to join us at Celebrate. Join us in person for an evening of fun and inspiration.
New this year! You also have the option to underwrite admission for Xavier faculty and staff to attend. All admissions purchased for faculty and staff by January 1, 2022 will be offered in a drawing for faculty and staff to win free admission. It is a small way to thank our faculty and staff for the amazing job they do.
Note: formal invitations will be mailed to all current System families and recent previous attendees in early December.
Get Involved
It takes well over 100 volunteers to make Celebrate the amazing event that it is. That includes volunteers leading up to the event and the weekend of the event.
To join the Celebrate planning committee, attend the monthly meetings. Meetings are held the first Thursday of the month at noon in the library at Xavier High School. All are welcome to attend (including younger siblings not yet in school) and no RSVP is needed.
To volunteer the weekend of Celebrate, watch for a SignUpGenius coming soon.

We hope to see you at Celebrate 2022 as we “Light the Way Forward”!

Xavier Day
Thank you, Xavier nation, for your phenomenal generosity in supporting our students and staff. Xavier Day raised $190,010! We unlocked all matching dollars and broke dollars raised and participation numbers pretty much across the board! We thank all of you for your phenomenal support.
We had an amazing Xavier spirit week celebrating each of our campuses. We capped off the week with Xavier Day and a Xavier Day gathering at Xavier High School. It was great to see so many friends of Xavier enjoying one another’s company, the XMS jazz bands, the food, and just being together.
We are humbled by everyone’s support and generosity. We look forward to next year! Go Hawks!
