I hated Holy cross academy. Wouldn't recommend to my worst enemies. The food is the best part abt hca but how they resolve problems is questionable.

I graduated from HCA in 2018. It was a great place to grow up 7 years ago, but it was changing as I was leaving, and there eventually was a permanent development that changed the school forever. I have gone back to HCA in recent years, but there is not very much left for me since kids I knew have graduated and a lot of my favorite teachers have left. HCA education is top-notch, but I think they've lost focus on developing the whole person. I wonder how the administration is going to keep up the HCA population while the modern-day develops. If you are looking to send your child to HCA, I suggest thinking hard about what you want to prioritize in your child's education.

I have two kids in this school and it's been a wonderful experience. It's a great feeling to know your kids are receiving a top notch education while also in a safe environment. My only hope is that the class sizes don't get any larger per teacher. Also, the teachers at HCA are very dedicated, carin...

If you are a minority, please do NOT send your child here. They will be bullied and the “administration “ will do nothing about it. Academics are questionable. My child’s teacher claimed that he had learning disabilities yet when I had him tested independently it was determined that he does not have...
