A cook prepares meals for the faculty seven days a week. We generally eat most meals together as a faculty and staff. Other benefits are laundry service, use of school pickup trucks to go into town, overnight trips to other islands in the lagoon, and Open Water SCUBA certification if desired. All faculty rooms are furnished, and linens are provided.

With a three-year commitment, teachers are eligible for a fully funded Master's Degree in Education from Creighton University or Boston College.

Teachers are expected to teach 4-5 50-minute sections.  We are a boarding high school, so there are office hours Sunday-Thursday, 7:30 pm-9:30 pm.  All faculty live on campus and share meals together.

Xavier High School is a private, Catholic coeducational college preparatory school high school run by the US East Province of the Society of Jesus on the island of Weno in Chuuk, Federated States of Micronesia.
