INTERVIEW WITH JUNIOR, JOSEPH VASQUEZ ’17
Holy Cross junior, Mr. Joseph Vasquez, Class of 2017 was interviewed about what he likes about Holy Cross.
What do you love about Holy Cross?
What I love about Holy Cross is the way everyone is like on big family. Holy Cross has pushed me to excel in everything I do, molding me into the young man that I am today. I also love the values and morals that are taught here, they are core values that I will carry with me throughout my life.
Describe Holy Cross to someone who has not heard of our school.
I would describe Holy Cross to someone who is unfamiliar with our school, by describing the “family like” atmosphere here. It is one of the best qualities about the school. We are one big caring community!
What extra-curricular activities are you involved in?
I am involved in basketball, National Honor Society (NHS), Student Knight Ambassadors and I am an ambassador for the Hope for the Future Ambassadors. I think it’s important to stay involved after the school day, it’s important to be a part of the bigger community and it’s a great way to meet different students.
Congratulations to our Man Cave Raffle Winners- 1st- Fernando Luna Sr. 2nd- Gary Hernandez ’74 3rd- Mario Esparza.
The Man Cave Raffle is sponsored by the Holy Cross Alumni Association. Thank you to everyone who participated.
