Holy Cross was the first private school that I have attended, and it did not disappoint. I was quickly surrounded by administration who is always helpful and welcoming, as well as good at not just teaching, but in a way that information can be retained.

Holy Cross is an institution that prepares their students academically for a higher learning experience. It also offers many sports and social clubs for students to participate in and form friendships. The parent community is actively involved allowing more opportunities for their children.

Great teachers, amazing sense of community/belonging, and felt relatively prepared for college. The only drawback is the lack of AP classes. There are a decent number, but not as much as other schools in the area.
