School Reviews
5 My grandsons attend Holy Cross School & I couldn`t be more impressed with the caliber of the education they are receiving. The enthusiasm and dedication of the teachers is incredible. My two grandsons couldn`t be any more different from eachother and all their educational and social needs are being met. Hooray for Holy Cross School. - Posted by Parent - Carey Travis |
5 The quality of the education at Holy Cross School is excellent. We have 1 child in 1st grade. Having an art club, piano lessons and Lego Club as some of the extracurricular activities is wonderful. - Posted by Parent - dfwhi |
