“Balance”
Principal‘s
Corner:

2. 2
Principal’s Corner: Balance
By the time you are reading this month’s Navigator, we
will have put one academic quarter of the 2017-18 school
year behind us. The “newness” of the year has worn off
and we are deep into “reality” when it comes to school
work, activities and other responsibilities. Students can
begin to feel that it’s all a “grind” and that they can barely
keep up with everything. To that end and at the request
of a few parents, I am re-sharing a piece I wrote last year
regarding 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 schedules. 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 do-
ing laundry and balancing checkbooks
at midnight or squeezing in mow-
ing 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 prob-
lem, 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 pressure, 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 cre-
ate incredible pressure on our students by pushing them
toward what I call, “resume-building.” Coaches and direc-
tors 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, at-
tending open gym, getting help from teachers or in some
cases attending scheduled lessons and/or rehearsals. Im-
mediately 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 pillow, 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 coor-
dinate assessment schedules (much easier said than done)
to help make the load on any one day a little more man-
ageable. 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.

We thank all families who pay their tuition in a timely manner!
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 pro-
posing 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 “bal-
ance.” 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 successful
students. It’s also important to develop happy ones.
God bless you and your family!
Sincerely,
Tom Keating

4. Respect Life
Catholics across the United States will
again celebrate Respect Life Month
throughout October. The theme for
this year is “Be Not Afraid”. During this
month Campus Ministry will be sponsor-
ing educational events, charitable ef-
forts, times of prayer, and opportunities
for public witness. We believe that such
initiatives are integral to the Church’s
ongoing effort to help build a culture in
which every human life without excep-
tion is respected and defended.
In the front lawn of Xavier for the month
of October we have 400 whites crosses.
These crosses represent the nearly
4,000 lives lost daily to abortion in the
US. There is a quote on the sign by
St. Theresa of Calcutta, it reads “It is a
poverty to decide that a child must die
so that you can live as you wish.”
Activities for Xavier Respect
Life Week October 9-13.
Other Respect Life Activities
• Visit the 40 Days for Life web page for
various community prayer
opportunities:
http://www.40daysforlife.com/cedarrapids/.
• Iowans for Life information can be
found here.
• Midwest March For Life – January 14 -
Chicago, information found here.
Every human being, at every stage
and condition, is willed and loved by
God. For this reason, every human life
is sacred. To deprive someone of life
is a grave wrong and a grave dishonor
to God. Because we are created in
the image of God, who is Love, our
identity and our vocation is to love.
Pope Benedict has called this “the key
to [our] entire existence.”
~ Flyer, Respect Life Program (2011)
During Respect Life Month, let us
rededicate ourselves to defending the
basic rights of those who are weakest
and most marginalized: the poor, the
homeless, the innocent unborn, and the
frail and elderly who need our respect
and our assistance. In this and in so
many ways we will truly build a culture
of life.
TEC
TEC is a great opportunity for seniors
to take time out to reflect on their faith
as they look at the many important
decisions they are making. There are
five TEC weekends scheduled in the
Archdiocese of Dubuque throughout
the 2017-18 school year. Seniors can
register for any of the available TEC
retreats. The structure of TEC is that it
will be a variety of high school seniors
from various schools, who attend. The
cost for the weekend is $75. Click here
for registration material.
Kairos Retreat
The Kairos Retreat weekends for juniors
will be held the following weekends
at American Martyrs Retreat House in
Cedar Falls:
K-30 Jan 18-21, 2018
K-31 March 1-4, 2018
(K-29 took place Oct 19-22)
Please pray for our student and adult
teams as they lead our juniors in deep-
ening their relationship with Christ. All
the retreats are full, but students can be
added to a wait list.
Our sophomore class retreat was held
Oct 9. We spent the day in exploring
the basis for John Paul II Theology of
the Body and how the decisions we
make in life impact our great call to
love. The day was composed of three
talks, one from Nic Davidson (a speaker
from on Theology of the Body from Min-
nesota) for each the boys and girls and
then Tom Keating and Mike Goldsmith
spoke to the boys and Alissa Sabers and
Kellie Wagner spoke to the girls. You
can learn more about Nic Davidson by

Campus Ministry Update
Submitted by Jody Esker
XHS Campus Ministry
• Theme: Be Not Afraid
• Baby socks to pin to backpacks for a
donation to go in support of
Bridghaven and Birthright
• Daily reflections in theology class.
• Morning Prayer offered specific to life
issues.
• Rosary in chapel daily at 7:20
• Thursday, 10/12 – Dress in Black
Students who chose to dress in black
observed a day of silence. By not talking
for the entire school day, students gave
witness to those voices who were
silenced due to a lack of respect for life.
• Friday, 10/13 – Rosary/Adoration in
the Chapel/100 year of Fatima

Campus Ministry Tip:
Looking for a great resource to enrich your faith life and
the faith life of your family? Let us recommend and online
resource called Formed. You can find the link here. This is
a great place to find Bible Studies, movies, documentaries
and articles.
“Go out to others and share the good
news that God, our Father, walks at
our side. He frees us from anonymity,
from a life of emptiness and selfishness,
and brings us to the school of
encounter. He removes us from the fray
of competition and self-absorption, and
he opens before us the path of peace.
That peace which is born of accepting
others, that peace which fills our hearts
whenever we look upon those in need as
our brothers and sisters.”
- Pope Francis, during visit to US

A Fresh Look for
XavierSaints.org...
Search Bar
Having trouble finding something on the site? The search bar
can help you out!
Large Home Page Slider
Users will notice a large, interactive slider on the homepage
which is designed to serve as a “front door” to our school on
the Web. This typically features content that displays what
makes Xavier a special place.
Upcoming Events
This section will typically feature major upcoming XHS events
with links to more information about each event.
Daily Announcements
Daily announcements typically include the lunch menu for the
day (updated early in the morning), any activities updates since
the last school day (updated mid-morning), and other informa-
tion such as club and organizational meetings after school.
These can be found on the home page (and are on display in the
Commons throughout the school day).

If you’ve visited XavierSaints.org recently, you may have noticed a few
changes. While the basic structure of the website hasn’t changed (most items
are where they’ve always been), we have made a few upgrades based on
user/parent feedback and general best practices. Here are just a few of the
enhancements you’ll notice:
Responsive
to Your
Device
Many of our parents, students and supporters consume at least some
information daily on mobile devices. Xavier’s website is now responsive to
best-fit the screen of your device. Generally, desktop computer users will
see a typical desktop display while most mobile devices will display a “con-
densed” display (the main menus will be displayed as 3-bar icons, other
elements will be “stacked” into a single-column layout, etc.). This makes
for a more friendly end-user experience across multiple screen sizes.

7. We would like to congratulate Xavier students who scored at 30 or better on the ACT exam (or the equivalent on the SAT
exam)! Congratulations to the following Saints: Aaron Bartels, Thomas Bean, Peter Binder, Sarah Bouska, Caleb Burken, So-
phia Cataldo, Sylvia Clubb, Eva Deegan, Paige Diebold, Calvin Ford, Timothy Globokar, Erin Hassenstab, Nicholas Hentges,

Earlier this month, a new 13-foot, neon-lit Xavier
halo cross logo was installed on the north side of the
theatre (facing Saints Field). This sign is the result of a
generous gift from longtime Xavier supporters, Phil &
Donna Garland and family of Nesper Sign Advertising.
The new sign is part of a series of campus branding
initiatives that continue to be implemented at Xavier.
This particular sign offers vibrant brand exposure
to Saints Field and Highway 100 to the north of the
building. We thank the Garland family for this wonder-
ful gift and their continuing support of Xavier and its
mission!
Have You Seen
The Sign?
In addition to the neon-lit hal cross a new 162-foot wind-
screen has been installed at the South end of Saints Field.
The windscreen bares “Xavier Saints” along with the logo.
Like the sign on the theatre, this effort is designed to increase
brand visibility.

where our teachers were divided into small groups and were given a chance to cycle
through a school day, experiencing each teacher’s “best lesson” in that group. This
was a great opportunity for collaboration, for teachers to gain new ideas from their
peers, and for them all to be “students” for a day in other subject areas.

Sleep…
It Does Your Body Good!
Most adults in the U.S. get less sleep than needed and high
school students run a particularly high risk of sleep depriva-
tion due to erratic schedules. Our society is becoming more
sleep deprived due to our lifestyle choices. From morning
to night most Americans, including teens, feel pressured by
time commitments, such as school or work, extra-curricular
activities, family, friends and social obligations. Sleep is often
shortened in order to make time for other activities. But
sleep isn’t just a “time out” from daily life. It is an active state
important for renewing our mental and physical health each
day. Sleep deprivation can be the cause behind extreme
moodiness, poor performance in school and even lead to lack
of motivation and depression. Teens also have a high risk
of having car accidents because of falling asleep behind the
wheel. The National Sleep Foundation (www.sleepfounda-
tion.org) suggests 8 tips for teens regarding sleep.
1. Sleep is food for the brain. Get enough of it, and get it
when you need it. Even mild sleepiness can hurt your perfor-
mance—from taking exams to playing sports or video games.
Lack of sleep can make you look tired and feel depressed,
irritable, and angry.
2. Keep consistency in mind: Establish a regular bedtime
and wake time schedule, and maintain it during weekends (as
much as possible) and school vacations.
3. Learn how much sleep you need to function at your
best. You should awaken refreshed, not tired. Most adoles-
cents need between 8.5 and 9.25 hours of sleep each night.
Most teens get an average of 7.4 hours a night.
4. Get into bright light as soon as possible in the morning,
but avoid it in the evening. The light helps to signal the
brain when it should wake up and when to prepare to sleep.
5. Understand your circadian rhythm. Then try to maximize
your schedule throughout the day according to your internal
clock. For example, to compensate for your sleepy times
participate in activities that are interactive and avoid lecture
classes or potentially unsafe activities such as driving. Teen-
ager’s natural circadian rhythm is to stay up late and then
sleep in.
6. Avoid all products with caffeine after mid-afternoon.
7. Relax before going to bed. Avoid heavy reading, study-
ing and computer games within one hour of going to bed.
Don’t fall asleep with the television on as the flickering light
and stimulating content can inhibit restful sleep. Shut off cell
phones.
8. Say no to all-nighters. Staying up late can cause chaos
to your sleep patterns and your ability to be alert the next
day…and beyond. Remember, the best thing you can do
to prepare for a test is to get plenty of sleep. All nighters or
late-night study sessions might seem to give you more time
to cram for your exam, but they are also likely to drain your
brainpower.
