Xavier uses a powerful fine arts program including music, art, theater, and dance/physical fitness.

Xavier follows the Great Expectations Life Principles Model for classroom climate which holds that teachers have positive attitudes, high expectations for students, maintain a climate of mutual respect, and have the knowledge and skills necessary to encourage children to achieve academic and social success. Character pillars such as self-discipline, citizenship, cooperation, perseverance, and respect are explicitly taught.

Xavier's class sizes range from 24 to 33.

Xavier is the first charter school in Twin Falls, Idaho. Twin Falls is a mid-size community surrounded by the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Hunting, camping, skiing, and many other outdoor pursuits are enjoyed in the Magic Valley area.
