As the first new Catholic school in the Rockford Diocese in over 30 years, Holy Cross Catholic School opened its doors in August of 2008.  Currently serving over 420 students from the Fox Valley area, Holy Cross Catholic School provides an intensely faith-based, academically challenging and differentiated education to students in preschool through eighth grade.  Holy Cross is committed to educating students beyond the fundamentals while fostering an environment of cooperation, responsibility, respect, and service to others in preparation for life as faith-filled adults.
