Welcome to the Graduation 2005
resource page. It is now official that graduation ceremonies for
the Class of 2005 will happen on the morning of Saturday, May
28, 2005. The Director has been assured that parents who have
debts over $1,000 will be able to pay the full amount. The senior
students’ fund-raising efforts and their academic performance
also contributed to the confirmation of the 2005 graduation ceremony.
If you are planning to come to Chuuk for your son/daughter's graduation,
please make your arrangements early as hotels and car rentals
are limited on island. You may also contact Vid (Assistant Director)
if you have any questions. Desha (Assistant Principal) will work
closely with the seniors and the new SBA to plan the Baccalaureate
Mass and actual graduation ceremony. We are looking forward to
meeting you for the celebration of the completion of four years
of learning.

HOTELS
& CAR RENTALS
Accomodations and car rentals on the island
are limited. We recommend that parents who plan on staying in
any of the few local hotels on island make reservations as soon
as possible. We have made several arrangements for discounted
rates for parents of our graduating seniors. Please make sure
you specifically ask for the Special Xavier Graduation Rates when
you make your arrangements. Here's a list of the hotels on island:

For the basic accomodations and probably the best value on island,
you can stay at the Kurassa Hotel. It is conveniently located

small 1-bedroom apartments that are also family friendly. They
have no restaurant, but there's a decent restaurant conveniently
