Welcome from the Principal

Dear Holy Cross Families,

At Holy Cross School, faith and learning walk hand in hand. Across our St. Michael and Blessed Sacrament centers, we welcome students into an environment where every child is challenged academically, supported spiritually, and celebrated as part of our school family.

We hold fast to four pillars that define who we are: Faith, Family, Knowledge, and Service. These values guide our teachers in the classroom, our coaches on the field, and our students as they grow into young leaders who live with courage and compassion.

Our dual-campus structure is a unique strength — allowing us to build smaller, close-knit communities while still offering the wide range of opportunities that help children discover their gifts and passions. Together, we ensure that every child feels seen, supported, and called to excellence.

Thank you for being part of the Holy Cross story. We are blessed to share this journey with you.

In Faith and Partnership,
Kristi Wilshire
Principal, Holy Cross School

Who We Are

At Bishop Heelan Catholic Schools, our daily pursuit of the Lifetime Advantage is guided by six fundamental pillars. These pillars serve as the cornerstone of our educational philosophy, shaping every aspect of our students' experience. Click on each of the six pillars below to delve deeper into our commitment to academic excellence, character development, spiritual growth, community engagement, leadership cultivation, and lifelong learning. Join us as we empower students to thrive in an ever-changing world.

FAITH

Our faith is central to our learning community. Each school day begins and ends with student-led prayer. Students attend weekly Masses and participate in the liturgy through lecturing, serving, music and more. Students learn about their faith through religion classes and activities. Providing students with a strong faith foundation and giving them daily opportunities to express their faith makes a life-long difference. Students who attended Catholic Schools are more likely to practice their faith as adults.

FAMILY

Our students are part of a larger family of the Heelan school community, parish community and the Bishop Heelan graduate community. We support each other to thrive and flourish in the classroom and in life.

KNOWLEDGE

Our student test scores are consistently above local, state and national averages. Every year over 90% of our Bishop Heelan graduates go onto college, most of them to four-year colleges.
