Dear Middle School Athletes and Parents,

If students are interested in participating in any Holy Cross Middle School sports, a current middle school physical form must be on file and the student must be enrolled before they can participate in any practice sessions. Physicals are valid for one year and must be taken annually if students wish to continue to participate in sports while at Holy Cross. If you wish to visit your primary physician for physical, please pick up an AIAL middle school physical form from the school front office.

Please feel free to drop off the completed physical form to the front office. I recommend you keep a copy of the physical for your records and email me directly when the form has been submitted to the front office.

The first day of the practice for Middle School Football is Monday, August 1st at 6:30 a.m. and Volleyball practice starts Monday, August 8th. Volleyball practice schedules will be posted soon, while Football practice and game schedules are currently available on the Holy Cross website by selecting the quick link “Athletic Schedules.” Please note to view a practice schedule you must select the “view Practice Schedule” which is located at the top left of a game schedule.

If your child is interested in participating in Middle School Cross Country, please contact me via email and note that Cross Country practice is scheduled to start on Monday, August 8th, depending on interest.

If you have any questions, please feel free to send me an email.

Enjoy the rest of your summer,

Vincent Padilla

On Wednesday, March 2, 2016, Mrs. Lafuente and her class joined 117 schools to create the world’s largest periodic table at Gustafson Stadium.  The periodic table is said to be more than 22,000 square feet! We are very proud of their effort to reach this accomplishment in collaboration with schools throughout San Antonio.

Way to go Knights!

We are proud to announce that today Beautify San Antonio presented Holy Cross of San Antonio a total of $3,000 for beautification of the Grotto! As per the grant’s guidelines, Holy Cross students helped design the landscape improvements and presented their plan to the Beautify San Antonio Committee.

Michael Lopez’16, Jessica Solano’16, Stephanie Perez’16 and Briana Torres’16 worked together to design a plan for the Grotto under the guidance of Mrs. Renee Buchanan, Landscape Designer at Growing Solutions. They impressed the committee with their presentation presentation on the history of the Grotto, the planning process, and how they will recruit volunteers for the project.

We are looking forward to the unfolding of their design and we are very grateful for all their hard work and dedication to beautifying our campus. Be on the lookout for volunteer days to help complete this project!
