XAVERIAN ANNOUNCES BROTHER RAY AWARD WINNERS FOR APRIL AND MAY

12 students were selected as recipients of the Brother Ray Award for the months of April and May.

The Brother Raymond Hoyt, C.F.X. Award is named after a much-beloved alumnus, teacher, and assistant principal. Brother Ray, a 1970 Xaverian graduate, served the school for 26 years with enthusiasm, positivity, and humility. In the spirit of Brother Ray’s contribution to the Xaverian community, award recipients demonstrate kindness toward their neighbors, humility in their actions, and service to those in need.

A limited number of the nominees are selected by the administration each month of the school year. This April and May, 12 students were selected as recipients.
