The Brother Marcellus Society is named after the first principal of Xaverian Brothers
High School. Phillip James Feeley was born in Worcester and professed into the
Congregation of the Xaverian Brothers as Brother Marcellus, C.F.X. in 1921. After
teaching for many years, he was called on to head a new school in Westwood in
1963, Xaverian Brothers High School. It was the successor to the boys division
of Mission Church High School in Roxbury. Brother Marcellus served as head of
school at Xaverian from 1963-1966. He put the new school on a path to academic excellence with an emphasis on science education, which continues
today. Like all Xaverian Brothers, Brother Marcellus was a man whose life was committed to the education of young men - body, mind, and spirit. Brother
Marcellus died in 1992 at the age of 89.
Xaverian Brothers High School is deeply grateful to those alumni, parents, and friends who have made plans to ensure opportunities for future
generations of Xaverian students and carry on the legacy of Brother Marcellus. As members of The Brother Marcellus Society, they have thoughtfully
included Xaverian Brothers High School in their estate plans through various kinds of deferred giving arrangements. These arrangements include different
types of trusts, insurance gifts, IRA contributions, and bequests.
Members of this group include:
