My son did very well here. He was an average student when he arrived and graduated with three years in the National Honor Society. He was encouraged to try a musical instrument and under the guidance of the former principal who still teaches there, he choose the bagpipes. I was stunned, but he really took to it and has since become an expert. He became the Pipe Major for Xaverian in his Senior year, they played at Lincoln Center one night; and he got a scholarship to college for the pipes! I was very pleased.
