As we prepare for a new school year, we share the bittersweet news that Karen Delaney and Christine Lemke are moving on from their shared role as our main office receptionists here at Xavier.
Over the past seven years, they have served as the faces and the voices of Xavier for students, families, and visitors alike. Serving as our first point of contact, they’ve brought consistency, kindness, and a warm, welcoming presence to our main office. From managing the fast pace of an average school day to offering a reassuring word or helpful hand, Karen and Christine have done so much more than answer phones and greet guests—they’ve embodied the spirit of what we work to instill in our students every day.
Their care and professionalism have been a blessing to our entire community. You still may see them around the office from time to time though as they have graciously offered to serve as substitutes when needed! They have also been busy training the next 'Xceptional team member who will be taking over in our main office (more to come on that!).
Please join us in thanking Karen and Christine for their service, and in wishing them the very best as they begin their next chapters. Their contributions will be deeply missed -- and they will forever be Saints!
