Holy Cross Thunderbolt Newsletter
September 6, 2023
Holy Cross Catholic School commits to each student’s learning and growth, blending innovation and compassion to guide students to become dedicated followers of Christ.
"If today you hear His voice, harden not your heart." Psalm 95
The readings for this 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time focus on a conversion of the heart. We are encouraged to overcome sinfulness and go beyond merely following the letter of the law and to truly love. These readings also help us learn how to support each other along the path to holiness and overcome our sinfulness.

Student Bonding/Host Experience
STAR Assessment Testing Begins Monday, September 11th
STAR Assessments are short tests that provide teachers with personalized learning data for each student. Students may take a STAR test for early literacy, math, or reading. Teachers analyze the data they receive from STAR Assessments to learn what students already know and what they are ready to learn next, to monitor student growth, and to determine which students may need additional help. These tests are research-based and scientifically proven to help teachers guide each student on their unique path to proficiency.
