Holy Cross Catholic School exists for one purpose: to give glory to God through the total education of each Holy Cross student.
Holy Cross Catholic School provides quality education in the Roman Catholic tradition to students of all faiths through the development of spirit, mind, and body.
We value the diversity of our students and provide a firm spiritual, academic, and social foundation upon which they can build their future.
We believe Catholic education includes formation in Christian justice, global awareness, and opportunities to serve the larger community.
We believe Catholic Education invites each child to develop a personal relationship with Christ by receiving a foundation in the doctrines and practices of the Roman Catholic faith.
We believe that the parents/guardians are the primary educators of their children.
We believe that every child should experience spiritual, academic, and physical growth each day.
We believe each student is unique and should receive an education suited to his or her personal growth patterns.
