HCA Parents

Thank you for choosing Holy Cross Academy, a vibrant community where students are able to grow both educationally and spiritually. We sincerely hope that the light of Jesus shines in and through each and every one of us. We hope to fulfill our mission by providing a strong understanding and practice of our Catholic faith, emphasizing the importance of being people of character, and employing the very best strategies and materials to develop our children's minds to the fullest. Be assured the faculty of Holy Cross Academy will do everything possible to make your child’s learning experiences beneficial to his/her growth and development. Together we can help your child discover ways to develop his/her potential.

As parents, you too have an obligation of providing and supervising the education of your child. One of the most important responsibilities of that role is to instill and develop Christian values and attitudes in your child. In our partnership, it is essential that students and family attend Liturgy on Sundays, Holy Days of Obligation and even more often when possible, making certain that the values of the Catholic faith which we teach at our school are being reinforced at home. For those from other religious traditions, we encourage your family to be united in the practice of your religious beliefs. Children who are not Catholic are expected to attend our religious services, class instructions and to maintain a respectful attitude towards our beliefs and practices.

Holy Cross Academy is an extension of the education that begins in the home. We, the faculty, need your help and cooperation if we are to be effective. We regard it as a privilege to assist you in the education of your child and want to strengthen the bonds between home and school. It is only when parents and teachers work together that a child receives the maximum benefit of Catholic Education.

Please feel free to contact Holy Cross Academy if you have any questions or concerns and may you and your child experience God’s peace and presence during the school year.

Sincerely,

Mr. Christopher McCarrick
Principal
