Pink Out Day at Holy Cross School 
Holy Cross students and parents are supporting those who have survived cancer and those who have been touched by loved ones with cancer.  By wearing the pink Keep the Faith t-shirt, our school and the community will know how much we care.

Students and faculty/staff who purchased the 2015 Keep the Faith pink t-shirt may wear the shirt to school with jeans or khakis on Monday, September 28.

(Athletes will have their own pink shirts to wear to school and play in.)

Students and faculty/staff who did not purchase the t-shirt may pay $1 and wear pink shirts and jeans or khakis.  Money raised from this dress out day will go to the Alan Pearson Cancer Center.  Please turn in your money to your homeroom teacher by Friday, September 25th. 

Join our teams at games after school on September 28th beginning at 4:00 and proudly wear pink in honor of all cancer survivors and victims.
