Holy Cross has been a wonderful place for our 2 children. Each year that we've been here, they have been able to add a new program or extra-curricular activity, and more good things are on the way! The academics are very strong, the music program is great and growing, and the staff are loving, committed and wonderful role models. A great value and a great education.
My children have benefited from attending Holy Cross Lutheran Academy. They are academically challenged within this great environment. The community involvement that is fostered here and in connection with Holy Cross Lutheran church is having a great impact on them now and for years to come.
The principal of this school is a wonderful, smart and caring woman. We are very pleased that we started this year. Our daughter is in 6th grade and she seems very happy and involved. The teachers are very responsive and although she has had a couple of problems, they have been addressed. I highly recommend this school, especially for the advanced middle school curriculum, and small, Christian environment.
Our kids have been at this school since pre-school and we have loved it. The small environment is perfect and the communications with teacher has been great until this year. Our oldest is in 4th grade and we have had a rocky year. We have gone to the Principal a couple of times but nothing has changed. I never thought we would ever consider taking our kids out of this school but now we are. My heart is breaking because this institution has been like family to us. I'm just praying for God to guide us in the right direction and HE will tell if we should or should not.
My two children attend Holy Cross (Sanford Campus) and I couldn't be more happy about our choice. The teachers are caring and the class sizes are small. My daughter has grown both intellectually and spiritually beyond any goals that I imagined. I can't recommend this place enough.
My daughter goes to VPK. I have friends that are teachers, speech therapists and tell me how far advanced is her curriculum. Her teacher disciplines her class and at the same time is loved by all her students. My daughter loves to go to school and I am so proud that she has learned so much... much more than most kids her age.
my son started holy cross in the middle of 3rd grade and has started 4th this year. We love this school. The staff are friendly and loving, the teachers are caring. I am soooo glad we found this school
My children started here last school year after attending public school. Within just a week they were saying how much they loved their new school. The class sizes are small so teachers have more time to spend with each student. Teachers also keep in close contact with parents, unlike anything we ever experienced at public school. I was able to keep on top of my children's progress and correct things (such as missing assignments) before they became a problem. Our child was struggling when he entered Holy Cross, but within a month or so he was thriving, all due to the attention given to him by his wonderful, caring teacher. The school stresses good Christian ideals and makes it evident in all their teachings. I highly recommend Holy Cross Academy!
My daughter goes to the pre-k program at the Sanford Campus and she has grown leaps and bounds. Her teacher is amazing and she loves it. I was nervous at first about sending her anywhere, and the staff has made her experience exceptional!
Holy Cross Academy is a wonderful school. The teachers and principal are caring and create a very positive and nurturing environment for their students!
