St. Francis Xavier School Foundation

In 1938, with only four teachers and classrooms, the Franciscan Sisters of Allegany opened the doors
of St. Francis Xavier School to 68 students.

For nearly seven decades, St. Francis Xavier School has been dedicated to providing a faith-filled
environment that empowers its students with the courage to excel and the belief that they can achieve
their best through Christ. To be sure, St. Francis Xavier School has made a positive impact on the
world with nearly 3,000 alumni spread throughout the country and beyond.

Father Thomas Anglim, SFX Pastor from 1966-2004, witnessed the transcending impact our school has had on each student.  Father believed so strongly in Catholic education that he had the foresight to establish the St. Francis Xavier School Foundation in 1984.  The foundation exists for the sole purpose of keeping St. Francis Xavier School financially healthy and growing for generations to come; in essence, to secure our legacy of affordable, faith-based learning.
