PrinciPal’s corner: Balance

Balance. It’s a concept we’ve been trying to master since we were toddlers. Early on it was standing, then walking. We tried to master steps. We learned to ride a bike. Then it was roller skates/blades and ice skates. Maybe we were bold enough to get on a ski slope.

As hard as it was back then to gain our physical balance, it seems to pale sometimes in comparison to the elusiveness of life balance. For us as adults, that work-life balance thing too often seems to be more than a little out of reach. So many demands on our time, even outside of work, that it can seem like we are no longer in charge of our own sched-ules. We are in cars and on flights to conduct business. We go from meeting to meeting. We rush through meals. We run from one child’s activity to another. We look at Mass times at every parish to see if we can get there between games. We find ourselves doing laundry and balancing checkbooks at midnight or squeezing in mowing the lawn before dark. We have calendars that never seem to have a blank day on them. And who decided we needed to be available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week through our mobile devices? Toss in a car problem, a water heater that goes out, or an illness and our stress levels push the limits. We ask ourselves, “How did things get so out of control?” And the things that really matter – prayer, quality time with family, time to relax and reflect – often are pushed to the

bottom of our priority lists if they even make the list at all.

Sadly, this challenge of finding balance in life is not unique to adults. As principal I’m seeing more and more of it in our students. And the results have me concerned. There seems to be significant pres-sure, self-imposed in some cases but most often imposed from others, to do more and do it better. Xavier says, “Get involved!” Colleges ask, “What activities have you been involved in? How many AP courses have you taken? What were your grades? What is your ACT score?” As parents we can create incredible pressure on our students by pushing them toward what I call, “resume-building.” Coaches and directors demand more and more time with them at practice, rehearsal and off-season programs or workouts. Not only is balance something that seems out of reach but “down time” just doesn’t exist.

Our students often fill their day with 8 classes. Before they even begin, many are in the fitness center lifting, attending open gym, getting help from teachers or in some cases attending sched-

uled lessons and/or rehearsals. Immediately after school they head to practice, rehearsal or a job. They live on fast food between activities. They come home tired and emotionally spent, wishing

they could just shower and go to bed. Instead, they pull out their books and their iPads and begin what for some nights can seem like a mountain of homework or hours of preparation for the next test,

presentation or project. By the time their head hits the pil-low, they are beyond exhausted only to hear the alarm just a few hours later, beckoning them to start the madness over again. Weekends used to be a time to relax. Now it seems to be a time to “catch up.”

I want to share that we are looking deeply into what we can do to help. Our teachers are discussing ways to coordinate assessment schedules (much easier said than done) to help make the load on any one day a little more manageable. We are working on ways to communicate with students exactly what it is we want them to know and be able to do for their assessments. We are asking coaches and directors to consider their students’ schedules as they plan practices, rehearsals and off-season workouts. We are asking to give them a day off once in a while. We are insistent that faith, family and academics take priority over activities.

I also want to share that we need your help. I’d ask that you have regular conversations with your students regarding their work load. Help them learn to prioritize and in some cases “let go” of some of the things that are packing their schedules. They need to know it’s OK to not have eight classes and be involved in two, three or four activities at the same time. They need to advocate for themselves by visiting with their teachers, coaches and directors about their schedule on a particular day. They need to know that a “B” is not the end of the world. They need to know that they don’t need to take every AP or dual credit course. Most of all, they need to know that you love them regardless of what they are involved in, what their grades are and what their “resume” looks like. I’m not proposing a “don’t care”

attitude by any means. But the stress levels we are seeing in our students say the “more and better” approach often does more harm than good.

It’s time for us to encourage our students to find that elusive “balance.” It’s time for us to let kids be kids (at least some of the time). You often hear me say, “Keep ‘em busy; keep ‘em broke.” That doesn’t mean every minute of the day every day of the week.

The level of academic and activities achievement at Xavier is unparalleled. We have a way of developing incredibly suc-cessful students. It’s also important to develop happy ones.

As the excitement of the early school year gives way to the reality of “routine,” I ask that you continue to partner with us in helping make 2016-17 Xavier’s best ever!

Above all, as we enter this Advent season, let’s commit ourselves to this year’s challenging theme: “Make me an instrument of Your peace.” God bless you and your family!

Sincerely,

Tom Keating, Principal [email protected] @Phillyboy14

caMPus Ministry uPdateSubmitted by Jody Esker

XHS Campus Ministry

As we begin this season of Advent, we prepare for the celebration of Christ’s birth through prayer and reflection. We contemplate the First Coming of Jesus as our Savior, and wait in anticipation for his promised Second Coming. And amid the flurry of Christmas preparations and worldly fixations, we look for ways to observe the holiness of the season in our everyday lives.

“Advent is an invitation to sobriety, to not be dominated by the things of this world, to material reality, but rather to govern them. If, on the con-trary, we are conditioned and overpowered by them, it is not possible to perceive that which is much more important: our final encounter with the Lord: and this is important. That, that encounter.” -Pope Francis

COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS Searching for scholarships can be a chal-lenging and time consuming process. We encourage families to first consult with the admission counselor at the schools they are considering to exhaust every opportunity the college offers as a first step. Second, consider any groups, employers, organizations that the student or family may be a part of. In addition, we have compiled a list of local and national scholarships that we have imported into Naviance Family Connection that can be found in the “Scholarship List”.

Now is the time that seniors should be starting to look at scholarships & ap-plying for scholarships. With our earlier FAFSA filing date, colleges will be hand-ing out scholarships earlier. Many larger colleges & universities now have dead-lines as early as Dec. 1st for scholarship applications. Contact your admissions representative for specific deadlines for the colleges that you are applying to.

Transcript Requests & Letter of Recom-mendation requests for scholarships are handled outside of Naviance. Students should follow the same procedure: Ask your teacher, email them with the de-tails & deadline for the scholarship and give them at least 2 weeks to complete their recommendation. This requires a little planning ahead to make sure

you meet your deadlines. All transcript request go through Mrs. Wallraff in the Guidance Office.

CONGRESSIONAL SEMINAR IN WASHINGTON DC The National Society of Colonial Dames of America sponsors an Essay Contest for students interested in Political Sci-ence. With the election just getting over and politics actively on students minds, this would be a great time to think about applying for this opportunity. The winner from Iowa receives an all expenses paid trip to this seminar. Both girls & boys in grades 10-12 are eligible to compete. Deadline for the essays is Dec.1st.

OTHER LEADERSHIP & EN-RICHMENT PROGRAMSXavier is sent information on many sum-mer enrichment/leadership programs. In order to share this information with you, we have created a section under the Guidance tab of the Xavier website just for this purpose. Here you can find many opportunities along with links to the websites that sponsor these pro-grams. If you are looking for a summer program for your student, this would be a great place to start.

saints at state: another fall to reMeMBerWith Winter activities underway, we take a look back at the success many of our fall activities exprienced this school year. Boys’ Cross Country, Volleyball, and Football all advanced to State while the March-ing Saints ended their season with an outstanding performance at the state competition.

2016 marked the seventh time the XHS Boys’ Cross Country team advanced to the State meet (ad-vanced in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2012 and 2015) and were joined by Katie Tallet, who qualified as an individual. Xavier Volleyball advanced to the state semifinals for the first time since the 2010 season under first-year head coach, Austin Filer, and was led by Xavier’s very first 1st-Team All-Stater in vol-leyball, junior Charlotte Richards. Xavier Football advanced to the state semifinals behind 1st-Team All-Staters Bryce Schulte, Maliki Wilson, Sam Mey-ers and Josh Gerke (Max Johnson & Shane Scott earned 2nd-Team nods and Nolan Butkowski was named to the 3rd-Team). Additionally, the Xavier Marching Band earned another Division I rating under the direction of Kelli Swehla.

Seven Xavier vocal music students were selected for the All-State Music Festival (Emily Lauer, Curt Lengemann, Luke Lesnik, Tristen Perreault, Nolan Pithan, Melody Snow, & Hannah Zwanziger). Two band students were selected All-State (Joseph Bioche & Callie Fay).

Congratulations to all our Saints who advanced to State in their respective activities this fall!

Earlier this month, XHS students Carter Kramer, Noah Kepros, Ethan Lowder, Piper Kesselring & Emily Cunningham represented Xavier as part of the Iowa Quality Center’s Student TEAMS (Training in Evalu-ating, Analyzing and Measuring Systems) initiative. As part of the project, TEAMS from area high schools are assigned an area organi-zation and a challenge that organization is currently facing. Each of the TEAMS must then use business tools to analyze the problem and make recommendations on how to best address the issue. Xavier’s assigned organization was Four Oaks.

Xavier’s TEAMS group presented to Four Oaks about how Four Oaks (which has many employees and multiple locations) can spotlight employees for the outstanding work they do and integrate addition-al community-building elements to the workplace.

Xavier competed with other area schools who made similar presen-tations to other area organizations for prize money. Xavier took sec-ond in the competition, earning $375 for students at Highwood Hills Elementary in St. Paul, MN -- a school with many students in need where XHS alumna, Sara Clancy (X06) teaches.

Great work by our Saints and their moderator, Mrs. Tracie Marshall, on doing an outstanding job of representing Xavier!

tem and the ability to integrate fertilization into the irrigation system. This grant is given to organizations who undertake projects with a community-minded focus and blend educa-

tional and service-oriented objectives together.

The Mississippi Valley Regional Blood Center is hosting the 8th an-nual “Battle of 42nd St. Blood Drive.” The drive will be held on Mon-day, Dec. 12 & Tuesday, Dec. 13 from 1:30-6:30 p.m. both days at the Oakland Church of the Nazarene (3000 42nd St. NE). Xavier High School and CR Kennedy High School will compete for the good cause of donating blood and saving lives. To donate on behalf of Xavier High School, contact XHS school nurse, Kris Naeve at [email protected] OR 319-294-6635 ext. 318.

Battle of 42nd st. Blood drive: helP the saints toP the cougars and Plan to donate!

Throughout the past several weeks, Xavier students have held supply drives and have raised funds for a class of first grade students at Highwood Hills Elementary in St. Paul, MN. The classroom’s teacher is XHS alumna, Sara Clancy (X06).

Last month, Xavier administrators and stu-dents (Gwen Cataldo, Jefferson Daubitz, Chloe Kepros, Riley Powell, Grayson Walther

& Hanna Zwanziger) visted the Third Grade classroom to meet the students of Clancy’s class. Highwood Hills has a 95% free and reduced population and 61% of their students are English Language Learners.

Saints raised more than $1,000 through various fundraising efforts (bracelet sales organized by XHS senior Jack High, TEAMS & general student donations) and a $200 contribution from Target. Additionally, numerous hats, gloves, snow pants, coats and more were also donated to the cause.

Xavier students along with Mr. Keating delivered the items to Clancy over Thanksgiving break while she was home visting her family to take back to St. Paul with her.

Xavier Bowling’s Jacob Fulton honored the memories of those we have lost recently in the Xavier community by wearing the names of former XHS faculty member, Justin Kramer, and Will Richmond, son of XHS faculty member, Jaclyn Richmond, on his bowling shoes last week as the bowling team opened its season. The Saints defeated CR Kennedy in their season opener.

Xavier celebrated “Principal Appreciation Day” earlier this month. XHS students decorated Mr. Keating’s and Ms. Olson’s offices in addition to bringing them coffee and making a donation on their behalf to the “Highwood Hills Project.”

Earlier this year, XHS senior/student photographer, Emiko Coffey, embarked on an independent project to take, mount and display photos of every XHS senior doing something each student enjoys. That project is now complete and on display in Xavier’s main stairwell.

Cast members of Xavier’s fall musical: “Bring it On”

Sisters from the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist stopped by Xavier to visit with Saints earlier this month and discuss their own callings to pursue a religious life and vocational awareness.

Xavier celebrated its annual Community Service Day on November 9th by performing service at more than 200 locations throughout the metro area.
