On Wednesday, June 1st, our 8th grade students completed their last day of school at Holy Cross Regional. Students attended their Retreat Day ministered by Fr. Friel along with several of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia seminarians. They attended their final class Mass and then came back into the school for the traditional beach ball signing before saying goodbye. All the students in grades PK-7th clapped and cheered as our 8th grade paraded through the halls of Holy Cross for one last time. We surely will miss this amazing Class of 2022. This class achieved $487,100 in scholarships to area high schools. Truly outstanding! We pray for our 8th grade graduates as they will have their Graduation Mass and Awards ceremony on Monday, June 6th. Congratulations and may God continue to bless them all as they head on to high school in the Fall. We are Holy Cross proud!
