A new principal for St. Francis Xavier School has been announced by Superintendant Geoff Andrews via social media.

  "Please join us in welcoming Jodi Testa as the new Principal of St. Francis Xavier School! Jodi is already a beloved part of our community, currently serving as our second grade teacher. She knows our students, loves our mission, and is deeply committed to helping every child grow in faith, learning, and confidence.

Named after St. Francis Xavier, one of the Church’s great missionaries who boldly carried the Gospel to the ends of the earth, our school has been forming disciples right here in Junction City since 1871. That mission continues today—and we are confident that Jodi’s leadership will help carry it forward with faith, courage, and purpose.

Her leadership is rooted in relationships, faith, and a belief that every student should be known, every family welcomed, and every member of our community valued. We are truly blessed to have her step into this role and lead St. Xavier into the future."
