Second semester enrollment numbers at St. Xavier Catholic School are about average.

Shawn Augustine, School Principal went over the enrollment numbers with JCPost Tuesday.

“We’re down just a little bit when it comes to K through 12. At semester we had some military moves, which brought us down a little bit, because they were larger families,” said Augustine. “But we’ve also gained a few students too. When you look across the board pre-k through 12 are basically just over 200.”

He went on to add that pre-k enrollment is up a little bit and is around the 50 students number.

In a perfect world Augustine said he would like to see enrollment at or around 215-220 students. In order to get there Augustine says the school needs to continue having students, parents of student, and alumni spread the good word about what the school has to offer,”a lot of times that’s how we gain our new families, just by them spreading the word.”
