Holy Cross Academy
School Notes Overview:
At Holy Cross Academy, all subject matter is unified through its foundation in the truth, enlightened by the Catholic Faith. Students will learn to develop as rational beings: how to reason, think logically and make sound judgments in all aspects of life. They will also learn to develop as spiritual beings: how to make correct moral decisions, grow closer to God and develop a deeper love for the Faith and the Sacraments. It is essential for the Catholic family to grow in a Christian mentality and preserve its Catholic identity, and this is strengthened through participation in a truly Catholic Community. Such a community is being developed here at Holy Cross. It is an extension of the family joining those with common beliefs, tradition and goals. The curriculum emphasizes our Western and Christian heritage, covering all the major areas of the liberal arts, as well as other supplemental courses.
