Though Mystique's running the school, Xavier's still around. Check out his character design, courtesy again of the Comics Continuum.

In addition, we get a bit of info on how he fits in, taken from the above address:

Bob Forward, story editor of the show, told The Continuum that Xavier will be portrayed in a somewhat different light in the series as he oversees a group of mostly teenage mutants.

"Xavier's a lot more gentle and fatherly than we're used to seeing him -- he's got to be; the kids he's dealing with are younger," Forward said. "He can be firm when necessary, but he's never harsh. It's still his hope, throughout the series, that even antagonistic social misfits like Toad and Avalanche can be eventually brought around."

Forward said Xavier is also "somewhat protective."

"He's aware of Magneto and Mystique and he's worried about the trouble he senses brewing beneath the high-school facade, but for right now it hasn't exploded into all-out war and he's determined to prevent it if he can," Forward said. "So there are a lot of things he hasn't told our heroes -- he's still trying to give them as normal a life as possible under the circumstances."
