Holy Cross High School Information

We occupy a beautiful 78 acre campus located on the southbound side of U.S. Route 130 in Delran, New Jersey, approximately 25 minutes from downtown Philadelphia, six miles south of Burlington and eight miles north of Camden in a convenient suburban setting. Most of our students come from Burlington County, some journeying more than thirty miles one-way daily. We call forty-one townships home and worship with our families from twenty-two parishes Holy Cross Academy opened its doors on September 4, 1957, with a freshman class of 333 students. For over five decades, Holy Cross has sought to instill in its students a tradition of faith and learning that can help them analyze and adapt to the world they enter upon graduation, by making decisions grounded in the school’s Latin motto, Sapientia et Sanctitas (Wisdom and Holiness). Schools, in general, are places of learning and secular wisdom. Catholic schools, in particular, should also be places of holiness and spiritual wisdom, which is a gift of the Holy Spirit.
