Welcome to all parents, both new and returning! As we conclude a very successful welcome-back BBQ, I want to thank the PAC and all of our wonderful parent volunteers who came out and helped make the event as successful as it was.

Our parent advisory council is having their first meeting of the year on Tuesday, September 17th @ 7:00 PM here at Holy Cross School. Please join us on Tuesday to become a part of the pact. With parent involvement, we will continue putting on amazing events like the Welcome Back BBQ, the used uniform sale, and the grade 8 farewell.

We look forward to having you come out on Tuesday and joining us on the PAC!

A reminder to start the school year for all parents, the program is open from 7 AM to 8:20 AM. Any students arriving at school before 8:20 are expected to go to the program or wait with their parent/guardian in the back parking lot by their assigned classroom pole. Unsupervised students will be redirected to the program. Dismissal is at 3:00 PM from the back doors for 1-8 and the front gym doors for the pre-k students and our kinder students. Any students not picked up by 3:15 will be taken to the program and will be picked up from there.

Weekly News Update June 24th-28th

Dear Holy Cross Families,

In preparation for the end of the school year, we are letting you know that your child’s next grade teacher’s name will be written on their report card and therefore the report cards need to be picked up on the last day of school.  The school office will close as of July 5^th and if the report cards are not picked up, we will not be informing people over the phone which teacher your child will have for September.  That is the purpose of writing the name on the report cards.  The school office will only reopen on August 26, 2024.

Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

Sincerely,

Holy Cross School Team
