SJEI
About
Our calling as a Catholic, Holy Cross school requires an intentional and active approach to dismantle systems of oppression, one rooted in Jesus' teachings and our shared goal of creating a socially just world. Social Justice, Equity, and Inclusion (SJEI) is the vehicle through which we will carry out this calling. It will impact all facets of the school community, in holistic fulfillment of our spiritual, academic, and social mission.
