Holy Cross High School (Delran, New Jersey)
Holy Cross Preparatory Academy is a four-year Catholic high school serving students in ninth through twelfth grades, located in Delran Township in Burlington County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The school is the only Roman Catholic high school in the county. Holy Cross has been accredited by AdvancED since 2013. The school was run under the supervision of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Trenton until 2018 when the school became independent.

Occupying a 78-acre (0.32 km) campus, it has a variety of co-curricular activities, including about 40 sports teams in 23 athletic programs and 50 clubs, for students to participate in. Tuition for the 2022–23 school year was $10,900.

As of the 2021–22 school year, the school had an enrollment of 258 students and 17.1 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 15.1:1. The school's student body was 70.5% (182) White, 13.2% (34) Black, 6.6% (17) two or more races, 5.8% (15) Hispanic and 3.9% (10) Asian. The student population is from a range of socioeconomic backgrounds. 99% of the school's graduates go onto two and four-year colleges and universities.

History

Constructed on a 100-acre (40 ha) site at a cost of $3 million (equivalent to $32.5 million in 2023), the school opened to an initial group of 400 students in September 1957 as the county's first Catholic high school.

The school underwent a $3.5 million renovation in 2005. A renovated Gerald Finsen Media Center was built during the 2005–06 school year.

Former principal Joseph Lemme pleaded guilty in December 2007 to the theft of $400,000 from the school for his personal use and was sentenced to five years in prison as part of a plea bargain.

In October 2017 the Diocese of Trenton informed the Holy Cross administration that the school's future was in jeopardy due to the schools enrollment and financial status. Throughout the final months of 2017 the alumni organized a Founding Board to determine if they could find a way to avoid the school’s closure and questioned the Diocese about becoming an independent school. In December 2017 Bishop David M. O'Connell met with school administration and informed them that the school would be closed at the conclusion of the 2017-18 school year. He then met with the Founding Board and informed them of the religious requirements for the school to become independent. The Diocese finally gave the board the permission to move forward and work to become an independent Catholic high school. Prior to 2018 the diocese spent about $500,000 each year to cover the deficit to keep the school in operation; the school remained open since the alumni were able to raise that much in donations. The school's name was changed to Holy Cross Preparatory Academy that year.

Extracurricular activities

Holy Cross' student government format is a Student Council.

Athletics

The Holy Cross Lancers compete in the Burlington County Scholastic League (BCSL), which is comprised of public and private high schools in Burlington, Mercer and Ocean counties in Central Jersey, and operates under the supervision of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA). With 221 students in grades 10-12, the school was classified by the NJSIAA for the 2019–20 school year as Non-Public B for most athletic competition purposes, which included schools with an enrollment of 37 to 366 students in that grade range (equivalent to Group 1 for public schools). The football team competes in the Classic Division of the 94-team West Jersey Football League superconference and was classified by the NJSIAA as Non-Public Group B (equivalent to Group I/II for public schools) for football for 2024–2026, which included schools with 140 to 686 students.

The girls' soccer team won the Group IV state championship in 1993 (against runner-up Randolph High School in the tournament final) and in Group III in 1995 (vs. Ramapo High School). The 1993 team defeated Randolph by a score of 2-0 in the championship game to win the Group IV title at Trenton State College.
