Holy Family School Returning to School Virtually in the Fall
Holy Family Catholic School is enthusiastic about being a parish school that has Christ at its center. HFS is a community of families who recognize that they want a experience for their children which goes beyond strong academics. HFS want an atmosphere where children learn to be strong, loving and contributing members to the communities and the world.
HFS Curriculum is designed to educate the whole child while providing a solid foundation for higher Catholic education. Ninety-five percent of its 8th grade graduates attend their first choice of school, including the top-ranked Catholic and College Preparatory high schools in the area. Our college age Holy Family alumni are currently attending Dartmouth, Yale, Harvard, Santa Clara, USC, UCLA, Stanford, TCU, MIT, Vanderbilt, St. Michael’s College-University of Toronto and SMU, among other distinguished colleges and universities nationally and internationally.
