MISSION STATEMENT
As part of Xavier University's mission the XU Grade School commits its best to help its students learn what they need to learn now to have a happy, meaningful and well-ordered life as children; what they can learn now and contribute to the community in their present levels of physical, intellectual, psychological-emotional, social, spiritual-moral--religious development; what they need to learn to be ready for high school studies; what they need to learn to become more and more the kind of persons that the Church and the country needs today, namely, persons of competence, conscience, compassion, and commitment.
HISTORY
Xavier University Grade School is conducted by the Fathers of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits). It started in 1941 in response to the request of a number of parents to have their sons educated by the Jesuit Fathers in early boyhood. XUGS was first housed in the side classrooms of Xavier University Gym located in Corrales Avenue.
In the beginning XUGS catered only to Grades V and VI students and there were only 52 students. During the war XUGS, which was Ateneo de Cagayan Grade School then, lay dormant. After the liberation classes were resumed during the school year 1946-47, still with only Grade V and VI offered.
Considering the growing population of the students in the 1950's, Father Cervini S.J., then Rector of Ateneo de Cagayan, had a one-storey building building at the north side of the main campus located near Corrales Avenue built for the grade school students.
In the school year 1950-51 Grades III and IV were offered. And in the following year Grades I and II were added. Also there was a Grade VII class during the school year 1954-55 until it was closed in 1971.
In the school year 1960-61 Kindergarten was added in answer to the request of parents.
During the year 1970 XUGS was transferred to the new building in Macasandig in consortium with Lourdes College.
