About Holy Cross Academy

The Holy Cross Academy school system consists of dedicated kindergarten through grade five sites that support a middle school location. The kindergarten through grade five sites will reside at the Our Lady of Providence Campus and at St. Michael the Archangel Campus, with the middle school established at Annunciation Campus. Each parish would maintain a pre-school and Parish School of Religion at its site.

At Holy Cross Academy, our new school system will:

Provide religious and academic programming that will be vibrant, meaningful, and current. The program will be administered and taught by individuals who are faith filled and capable of utilizing the best practices in school administration and classroom instruction. Students will leave this system well prepared for a successful high school experience and for rich and meaningful lives.
Allow the parishes to make Catholic education financially viable, affordable, and accessible for parishes and parents for many years to come.
Provide a governance structure that will allow for appropriate and realistic involvement of pastors, parents, parishioners, and the large community. The structure will foster a sense of ownership and investment in the school system that is so crucial to its long term success.

Our new system will provide the parishes of Annunciation, Our Lady of Providence, and St. Michael Archangel the best opportunity to achieve the vision of Catholic education that was recently articulated by Archbishop Carlson in his Mission Advancement Initiative. Holy Cross Academy will be a school with a vibrant Catholic identity that is growing and financially healthy. It will be a Catholic school that is "Alive in Christ"!
