Academics
Our school is preparing graduates to succeed in high-caliber secondary schools. Here’s how:
- Accelerated and advanced learning opportunities
- Preparation for achievement on the High School Placement Test: Most Holy Cross students are accepted into the high schools of their choice, and many earn significant scholarships
- Full accreditation by the Middle States Association Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools
- Data-driven instruction and use of robust data analysis to monitor classroom results and student growth, enabling us to rapidly adjust to student needs
- Network-wide implementation of the research-based math curriculum Eureka Math to improve student achievement in mathematics
- Network-wide implementation of top-rated English Language Arts (ELA) curriculums: CKLA for Pre-K and EL Education for K-8
