Extracurricular Activities
St. Xavier places an emphasis on "co-curricular" activities as a complement to academics. The most visible of these activities are supported by the school's athletic, arts, and community service departments. In addition, students have formed 85 school-sanctioned clubs with the sponsorship of faculty members.

Famous quotes containing the word activities:
“There is, I think, no point in the philosophy of progressive education which is sounder than its emphasis upon the importance of the participation of the learner in the formation of the purposes which direct his activities in the learning process, just as there is no defect in traditional education greater than its failure to secure the active cooperation of the pupil in construction of the purposes involved in his studying.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
