Students are required to have a keyboard device to work on their classes. Each student receives a mycrusader.net email address that gives them access to all of the Gsuite applications provided by Google. Holy Cross and the students owns all rights to their data/content on this system as security and privacy are very important. Each student will learn how to use our online technology to be able to communicate and collaborate with staff and students. We strongly believe that each student will leave Holy Cross with the skills to operate in this new information age and to promote God's message through technology and their positive interactions in society.
For devices the school suggests using a Chromebook at the base level but other devices with a physical keyboard will also work.
Google Classroom is used in every class to allow students and teachers to support their learning and to be able to track, communicate, and provide feedback on one's learning.
Wifi is available to all students with a limit of 2 devices each. With over 800 people in the building we are able to manage our data rate to be able to serve up to 1200 devices at any one time. Wifi is limited to the websites that are conducive to a positive learning experience.
The school has a number of social media outlets that serve to promote the positive message of the staff and students of Holy Cross. Make sure that you follow our social media platforms.
