Admissions to Holy Cross
You Belong Here !
2012-2013 SCHOOL YEAR
FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ADMISSIONS
Holy Cross is a community built on years of success – academic and athletic, spiritual and social, within our classrooms and out among our communities. Contributing to that success is a strong and vital sense of purpose that is shared by all of our students, faculty, and administration.
Students join the Holy Cross community by choice: they choose to take themselves seriously as students, and to respect the students and teachers with whom they share their experiences.
In addition, Holy Cross students choose to enter a true college preparatory environment, where class format, curriculum choices, and the infusion of technology into everyday learning mirror the challenges and opportunities that await each student on today’s college campuses.
If this sounds like the choice you’re ready to make, I encourage you to join us at Holy Cross.
OUR ADMISSIONS POLICY

The admissions decision is based on:
- Elementary school test scores
- Elementary school grades
