“Zeal is the great desire to make God known, loved, and served, and thus to bring knowledge of salvation to others.” – Blessed Basil Moreau.

The Holy Cross Award was created to honor members of the Bishop McNamara community to honor overall service and advancement of Bishop McNamara High School. Through their hard work, this honorees have helped us continue our Holy Cross mission and spread the word about our School and extraordinary students. Nominees for the award should, as Blessed Basil Moreau stated, "make God known, loved and served" through their work with the School.

Nomination for the Holy Cross Award is open to parents, Bishop McNamara faculty and staff, as well as Bishop McNamara and La Reine High School alumni who have made God known, loved and served by performing charitable acts in their personal and professional lives.
