Our girls thrive.

 

Our girls are empowered to share their ideas, grow in their faith, try something new and lead their peers—without hesitation or limitation.

Empowering Girls

Our girls push themselves.

With personal faculty attention, 1:1 technology integration, Advanced Placement and STEM, we work with students until they realize and achieve their full, individual potential.

Intellect

Our girls take initiative.

 

With 30 sports teams, 8 stage productions and over 30 clubs, our girls fill influential roles all over campus, developing the intelligence, confidence and compassion to become women of action.

Leadership

Empowered girls defy expectations.

Holy Cross is a private, Catholic high school located in Kensington, Maryland.

Now more than ever, it’s time for girls to find their voices, to speak their minds, to stand up for their beliefs and to lead change in the world. It’s time for empowered girls.

Holy Cross is committed to developing women of courage, compassion and scholarship who responsibly embrace the social, spiritual and intellectual challenges of the world.
