Holy Cross Catholic Academy (Amarillo, Texas)
- Holy Cross Catholic Academy (Amarillo, Texas)
Holy Cross Catholic Academy is a private, Roman Catholic high school in Amarillo, Texas. It is the only Catholic high school in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Amarillo.
Background
Holy Cross was established in 1928 as St. George's College in the basement of Amarillo's Sacred Heart Cathedral. It was an all-boys school at that time. In 1929 the school was renamed Price Memorial College, in honor of a widow's donation to help construct a permanent building for the school. The Christian Brothers staffed the school from 1936 to 1966. In 1966 the school merged with nearby all-girls St. Mary's Academy and became Alamo Catholic High School, a coeducational middle and high school. The school moved to its present location in 1990. It was renamed Holy Cross Catholic Academy in 2000 after a complete renovation of the school.
