Xavier Jesuit School is an International Catholic School in Liberia run by Catholic priests and brothers of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits). Since our program of formation is centered on “character and learning” we take the spiritual life of our staff and students very seriously. We celebrate the Holy Mass every Friday for our school community and all students are required to attend. We regularly organize retreats and days of recollection for our school community. The aim is to attain a holistic education with rigorous formation of individual character, intellect, and personal attributes.
