Frequently Asked Questions
Hear From Our Parents
Holy Cross is jewel among Portland schools. When I took my son to visit his Pre-K class before enrolling, he was immediately and spontaneously welcomed by a class filled with the sweetest kids. As the year pressed on with the advent of COVID, we saw how lucky we were. The teaching through the pandemic has been outstanding as has been the communication and organization. - Charli
We have continually been impressed with the community, the teachers, and the leadership. Our Principal has been a confident leader through the COVID-19 pandemic, keeping our families feeling safe and cared for, our teachers being equipped to be successful at distance learning, and our students being loved. Beyond only our Principal, other teachers and administrators continue to lead our community and reinforce why we call Holy Cross our home. - Kacy
Holy Cross has been an amazing learning environment for our daughter. The individualized approached has helped our child thrive and focus on opportunities to improve in certain subjects. The focus on School Wide Learning Expectations with each student helps them to be well rounded and life long learners. I would recommend Holy Cross as a great school. - Jamie
