The faculty and staff assist each child in the development of basic skills and unique talents, while instilling and nurturing values that enable students to become successful, contributing, Christian citizens.
Philosophy
Holy Cross School is a part of the teaching mission of Holy Cross Parish. The School is a unique expression of the Church's effort to educate all members of its community. Therefore, the School as such must be a living organism that combines the efforts of principal, teachers, students, priest, staff, parents, and community personnel to develop an atmosphere where a student can grow intellectually, physically, and spiritually. Necessary skills for a rapidly changing society are an integral part of the curriculum.
