Help Tackle Hunger

Tigers, let's team up to tackle hunger! We are currently collecting canned soup and non-perishable food items to support our community partner, Second Harvest Food Bank.

Every little bit helps to provide meals to those that Second Harvest serves. Please drop off your donation anytime from now until Friday, February 6, at the Primary and Middle School Office. Thank you for continuing to answer the call to serve those in our local community.

Support Bowling with a Give Back

Support the Holy Cross Bowling team with a Give Back opportunity! Stop by Mark Twain's Pizza Landing in Metairie on Tuesday, January 27, and on Wednesday, January 28. Mention Holy Cross Bowling with either dine-in or carry-out orders, and a portion of the proceeds will go directly to the team.

Two days, two opportunities, lunch and/or dinner to help the team. Grab your fellow Tigers, family, and friends and join us. It's as easy as pie - pizza pie!

It's Carnival Time!

This is the last week to get your king cake order in! The Tiger Band is partnering with Jay's Bakery again to sell king cakes, with a portion of the proceeds going to the band.

Choose between a traditional ($25) or a cream cheese-filled ($30). Don't wait because the deadline to order is Thursday, January 22. To order, email Mr. Forstall or contact a Tiger Band member. Cash or check is accepted.

King cakes will be delivered and available for pickup at Holy Cross School on Saturday, January 31, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Thank you for supporting the Tiger Band and Laissez les bons temps rouler!
