HOLY CROSS
December 2015
Catholic Secondary School
Principal’s Message
November has been a great month. After having visited nine feeder schools
to talk to grade 8s, I am pleased to report that the class of 2020 is going to
be fantastic. The two Day of the Arts at Holy Cross, November 23 & 24,
were very well received by our elementary partner schools. See the banner
above (by photographer Sarah SzumlanKASSAA Champion Sr. Girls’ BBall on sen- ski). Guys and Dolls is a wonderful
ior night at the Holy Cross gymnasium.
accomplishment. I hope you had a
chance to see it. We also had two
athletic championships to celebrate—Sr. Girls’ Basketball, over
rivals RND, and Junior Boys’ football, over Frontenac. Both sweet
victories. Boys’ volleyball (both
teams top four finishers), girls’ field
hockey (finalists), cross country (top
10 EOSSAA finishers) all speak to
the quality of our coaching and the
efforts and talents of our student-athletes. By press time, the senior boys’
volleyball team, led by Mr. Manion, and the senior girls’ basketball team,
under the direction of Mrs. Dixon, will have competed at OFSSA in Windsor. In short, it’s been a great fall season for the arts and sports.
As we plan for second semester, I wanted to inform parents and students of
a situation: due to high enrolment and two mid-year retirements (Mrs.
Dowsley and Mr. Michalski) second semester timetables for many students
will have to be updated and potentially adjusted. I delivered this information
to School Council on November 11th and at that time your parent representatives on council expressed concerns on behalf of the community
about this state of affairs. The work of balancing classes will begin following
a review of grade 12 enrolment for semester 2, in December. Please know
that our guiding principle is minimizing the disruption to student timetables.
Teachers may change, the periods in which courses are offered may
change, but courses that students are enrolled in now will not change, unless by request. If you have any concerns, please contact us.
As the season of Advent will be upon us by the time this newsletter reaches
you, let me take this opportunity to wish you and your family blessings during this very special time of the year. May your December be full of hope
and happiness.

Congratulations to the Junior Football team, under the direction of Head Coach Tim Hunter, which captured the KASSAA
Championship on November 14th, by defeating the Frontenac Falcons. If you check the scoreboard, you will see it was a
convincing victory, capped by Carter Bailey’s three touchdown MVP performance. Special thanks to Mr. Rick White and
our community volunteer coaches Ken Bailey, Mike Jefferies, Johnny Sullivan, John McCombs, Tyler Grant, and David
Heroux , as well as our fans who came out to cheer the Crusaders on to victory. This is the fifth straight junior championship
for Mr. Hunter and crew which speaks to the quality of the Holy Cross football program.
Bullying Prevention Week
As part of our Students’ Council response to the challenge of educating students
about the impact of bullying behaviours, councilors left positive messages on all student
lockers. This reminder- to enjoy our time together here at school, and to know that you
are never alone – was timely and important. On the final Friday of Bullying Prevention
Week, students and staff were encouraged to accessorize their uniforms with pink, as a
visible act of support for those who suffer as a result of bullying behaviours.
Students and parents are encouraged to report any and all incidents. Together, we
can control the negative impact of bullying in our school community. We just have to
work together.

Students gather in the Holy Cross gym to record a video message for our Senior Girls’ Basketball and Senior Boys’ Volleyball teams as they travel to Windsor to compete at OFSSA
Community Clean Up
Every year, in the spring, the students of Holy Cross, led by our
Green Team, participate in a community clean up. Students volunteer their time to pick up trash and debris on our property and on the
surrounding properties. One of the issues that
arises without fail, is garbage along Woodbine
Road, discarded as students travel to and from
the local restaurants at Bayridge Drive and Princess Street. Other problem areas are the local parks at Lancaster and at Dunham Street along the walking paths. Holy Cross is a Gold Certified Eco school and we do everything we can to control waste on
our site. Students are encouraged, while off campus, to follow the same environmentally sound practices
they do while here at school. Please be mindful of our neighbours and keep up our neighbourhood
clean.
Graduation Survey
As promised last month, our graduation survey is
available for your input. You may use the link below to
access it. Please be advised that we are simply gathering information for our graduation committee.

ATTENTION PARENTS OF STUDENTS TAKING GRADE 9 MATHEMATICS:
EQAO Math Assessments will be written on Tuesday, January 19th and Wednesday, January 20th. Parents
are asked to ensure that their children are available to write these Provincial Assessments on these days. Last
year, 69% of our students working at the applied level achieved the provincial standard on this assessment.
82% of students working at the academic level achieved the standard. These are excellent results.
The ‘Blood Bus’ as it is known, has come to Holy Cross. This program, officially
called the Life Bus and popular among high schools, provides transportation for
senior students who volunteer to give blood. The bus arrives before lunch, picks
up, and then returns students once they are finished at the blood bank. It’s a
great cause and complements the One Match program also available at Holy
Cross. Thanks to Mackenzie Curran for getting this started and if students and
parents are interested, there are dates in the new year, January 7th and February 25th: just sign up in the main office.

Staff News
With a mixture of joy and sorrow, we announce
the retirement of Mr. Andrew Michalski, who
came to Holy Cross in 1991 to teach in the special education department and subsequently
moved to the religion department. Mr. Michalski
has been a mainstay in our senior religion classrooms for many years. His wisdom and institutional knowledge will be sorely missed by students and staff, yet we also celebrate with him
as he moves to this new phase in his life. He
joins Mrs. Michele Dowsley, who announced
earlier she will be retiring in January. We will
miss these two faithful servants of the Holy
Cross community.
As noted elsewhere
in our newsletter, our Senior Girls’ Basketball won KASSAA gold and look forward to the OFSAA championship in Windsor as the 14th seed. Senior Boys’ Volleyball also will be
attending the AAA OFSAA championship in Windsor as the 17th
seed. The Junior Boys Football captured their 10th KASSAA championship in 12 years, besting the previously undefeated Frontenac
Falcons. Kiley Rodrigues and Emily Calder advanced to play in
the OFSAA Girls' Golf Festival at
the Roseland Golf Course in Windsor. In the 18 hole final, Kiley posted an 82 and finished in 25th place
overall. The cross country team
congratulates Meaghan Jefferies
and Max Taylor for representing
Holy Cross so well at OFSAA
cross country in Collingwood. Despite the challenging course, both
finished in the top 80! In the photo above, Noah Steele signs his
letter of commitment to Sam Houston State. Noah will be attending
on a full golf scholarship in September and we wish him well. The
Badminton season is almost underway. Singles, Doubles and Mixed
Doubles have all been represented well at KASSAA and EOSSA.
This year will be no exception! Tryouts will begin the first week of
December. Practices are at 7am, a sign up meeting will be held by
Mr. D. Roberts in 216. Check the announcements carefully!

PASTORAL SERVICES UPDATE
The Advent Season has arrived. And with the “Jubilee Year of Mercy” beginning on December 8th, we
will be focusing on the “Corporal Works of Mercy” over the coming weeks here at Holy Cross. Each
week of Advent will see a different “Work of Mercy” highlighted. This should provide us with a meaningful way to fulfill Pope Francis’ call to
share God’s mercy with others
during Holy Year. For the first week
of Advent we will reflect on
“Sheltering the Homeless”. This
“Work of Mercy” connects us with
our Refugee Sponsorship Campaign which has us partnering with
St. Paul the Apostle Parish and our
feeder schools to house and support the Maree’s, a refugee family
from Syria. We are also raising
money to do a House Build in Kingston, Jamaica during our upcoming Mission Trip. For the second
week of Advent, we will focus on
“Feeding the Hungry” as we raise
money to support the St. Vincent
de Paul Society’s efforts to help the
poor right here in Kingston. And
during the third week we will focus
on “Clothing the Naked” as our
school collects coats and other
items to give to the Hotel Dieu
Hospital’s “Christmas Coat Collection”. On December 3rd our students will gather by grade level in
the Library to celebrate the sacrament of Reconciliation. On December 10th we will celebrate our Advent School Mass. And throughout
December we will continue to take
students to visit local retirement
homes, hospitals, and one of our
local soup kitchens to bring joy to
those in need around us. Let’s
make this Advent Season a wonderful experience of God’s peace through the “Corporal Works of Mercy”. And the coming year a meaningful celebration of God’s love by entering fully into this Holy Year of
Mercy.
May the peace and joy of God be with you this Advent Season.

School wide Composting Program including Vermi-composting
November saw the start of a new composting program at Holy Cross on a huge scale. From now until Christmas team members will collect organic, 'appropriate compostable' waste from the students eating lunch in the hallways. Garbage bins in the
cafeteria will be re-labelled to encourage proper disposal of organic waste and the staffroom, workrooms and classrooms will
be equipped with containers to collect waste if food preparation occurs there. We are also in contact with the City of Kingston and are arranging curb-side pickup to start over the winter months. In the meantime a vermi-composter has been initiated and the worms are doing the composting for us and will prepare excellent fertilized soil which we can use in the Holy
Cross garden in the spring.
Pictured with the Green Team's 'Composting' members
is the newest addition to the parking lot - an ALL Electric car, a BMW's i3, property of the Green Team moderator, Mrs. Hulse. Check it out as it travels around
Kingston - it’s the way of the future! Below is a group of
