The mission of St. Xavier Catholic
School is to educate the whole
person—body, mind and spirit—in Christian values in accordance with our Catholic faith
tradition.
Welcome to St. Xavier’s new school year! This year a few
things are different because we have a couple of new classes. We are
trying to expand our curriculum and catch up with the other
schools. A few of our newer classes would include Chemistry, Choir,
Trigonometry, Business and Economics. Next year we will be add-
ing Physics and Spanish II. With those new classes we have a few
new teachers to help us learn those subjects a little better. Even for
Chemistry the teacher is teaching us online so it’s a new experience
for everyone. Also, our schedule is a little different so we had to
move church to Tuesdays and Fridays. This sounds like a promising
year with new faces and newer classes.
Yearbooks are up for
sale right now! You can
buy one for $20.00 until
November 23, 2010 so
buy yours today! This
years yearbook will be a
color soft back book.
Also, something new
that we are adding this
year is our full-time pre
-schoolers.

Welcome back volleyball players.
I hope you all enjoyed your sum-
mer, are well rested and ready to
kick some tail! The volleyball
season has just recently started,
so all of you sports fans out there
should come out to see a volley-
ball game or two. If you’re look-
ing for a fun, eventful and sus-
penseful time, this is the place to
go. Lets cheer our Lady Rams to
victory! Go Big Blue! During
break time if you need a drink or
a snack, we do have an amazing
concession stand so check it out.
First high school game was Sat-
urday Aug. 28 at Alma. Second
game was home, Tuesday the
31st VS Topeka played as well
for the junior high. Their next
game is a home game on Thurs-
day Sept. 9 VS Manhattan. Lets
go Rams!
during the
following
game.
Were all
proud of
our Lady
Rams.
Keep it up!
Lets give Mr. Keating some
recognition as well. He is our
high school girls’ volleyball
coach. He did an excellent job
coaching the girls through
their first tournament. Unfor-
tunately we didn’t win every
game. The girls, however, did
put forth one hundred percent
effort. They did even better

nicate together. The
older girls started
showing the ropes to
the new girls.”
“Seeing the girls win
isn’t as important as
giving one hundred
percent.” Spoken like
a true coach, Mrs.
Powers. Lets all hope
for a good season and
cheer them to victory!
We would like to welcome back
Mrs. Melanie Powers, the junior
high volleyball coach for the last
4 years. She sure whips the girls
into shape. How does the team
look for this year, one might ask?
“Many of our returning players,
several 8th graders, who played
for 3 years know my philosophy.

ing to work together and commu-

The Lady Rams did an excellent job at
the tournament in Alma. They really got
fired up when they played. It was a
great warm-up for the season. First
game was against Centralia, and the
Lady Rams really stood their ground. It
was a tough team to play, but we did
show them a thing or two. The fans
were really proud of these girls. They
must have played five or six games each
with two rounds total. To tell you the
truth the girls were pooped by the end
of the day, Thank God there were rest
periods. Over, all the girls did excellent.
They really showed their Ram Pride
when they played Axtell. The first
round, starting with Guest, went as
so: Twenty-five to twenty, The last
round was an unfortunate turn of
events but it gave us knowledge and
skill for next time. The score was
twenty to fifteen. The game wasn’t
exactly in our favor but we did show
we needed a little work and better
communication. When the game Vs
Cair Paravel came, we showed that we
accomplished both and came out
strong! GO RAMS!!!
Like the junior high, our high school
Lady Rams did excellent at their
game Vs Cair Paravel. Mr. Keating
really showed off his coaching skills.
He led the girls to victory in the first
round with a score, starting with
Guest, of twenty-one to twenty five.
Following that round the Ladies lost
the second round with a score of
twenty-five to seventeen. They
weren’t ready to give up just yet!
They played their tails off. The last
round was probably the most sus-
penseful. The last round was a
game that I’m sure will give the la-
dies spark to get pumped up for
their next game. The score was
twenty-five to twenty-three. We
may not have won the game, but if
we were to talk to the other team
they would have agreed we did
amazing. The game kept many of
the fans on their toes.

cent. Now the “B” team seemed to
keep up the fighting spirit. They
started off with a score of ten to five.
They didn't quit there they really got
fired up and picked up their game to
win the second round with a ten to a
whopping fifteen points! Way to go
girls! With the ending of the last
round, they gave Cair Paravel a run
for their money with a score of ten to
eight.
The junior high girls did a good job on
their first game. First, they played
Cair Paravel from Topeka. They
played two rounds, starting with
Guest. The score was twenty-five to
seventeen in the first round and in the
second, twenty-five to twenty. Need-
less to say they did great during their
first game. Mrs. Powers did an ex-
tremely well at coaching them. The
girls seemed to give one hundred per-
