Holy Cross High School Academy at Post University

Holy Cross students benefit from this program in multiple ways. First, students are able to access a broader scope of subjects.  Second, students gain invaluable experience taking online classes - something most students will experience at some point in their post-secondary years - in a supported environment. Third, students graduating from Holy Cross with a qualifying GPA will have access to a generous merit scholarship offered by Post University.

Holy Cross High School offers on-line coursework through Post University as a dual enrollment option during a student’s academic day at Holy Cross. The online course  will take place in a singularly scheduled block and will allow for students to enroll in any of the course offerings with the assistance of a Post professor and under the guidance of a Holy Cross teacher responsible for facilitating the course.

Each on-line course will equate to Holy Cross elective credit and three credits from Post University simultaneously. Each course is eight (8) weeks long, which equates to our academic quarters, therefore a student may take two (2) online courses per semester and four (4) online courses per school year at a cost of $300 per course. In addition, enrollment in these courses requires the following prerequisites from each student:

1. Minimum 10th grader
2. GPA of 3.0 or above
3. Recommendation from an administrator, guidance counselor, or teacher  

Courses will be offered in the areas of Business, Education, Psychology, Sociology, Law, Computers, College Writing, And Art among other entry level courses.
