Holy Cross educators commit to students’ success in the classroom and beyond.
At Saint Francis, teachers moderate, coach or direct at least two student programs in addition to their classroom responsibilities. Many of our teachers hold advanced degrees and are experts in the fields they teach. Our faculty members believe in the Holy Cross tradition and are role models who inspire students to reach their full potential.
Whether offering guidance on a project, cheering from the sidelines at a game or creating a sense of belonging in the classroom, our educators foster a vibrant community where students feel seen and supported. Learning at Saint Francis is relational and rooted in connection—students don’t just grow academically; they thrive as part of a caring, cohesive community.
