Holy Cross High School is today, in good measure, a product of the tradition that has been created over the past eight decades.
This proud and spirited legacy has at its core, a commitment to excellence and a dedication to faith.
While the curriculum, buildings and teachers have changed, the foundation of our school remains the same.
The strong work ethic, the family atmosphere, and the 鈥渘ever say die鈥 attitude are characteristics that serve as a common thread between the past and the present and connect alumni and friends from all generations.
