Happy Valentine's Day



Q and A with the students and the Principal

Valentine's day is a day that's origin is clouded in mystery. Many accounts have been suggested to have been the start of Valentine's, but one cannot say for sure. There is an account of a priest named St. Valentine who would wed couples secretly in times of war. Others speculate a different priest also named Valentine who was imprisoned by his emperor. This priest apparently befriended his jailor's daughter and even cured her blindness. Whatever the real inspiration for valentine's day may be, we cannot say for sure right now.
What is Valentine's Day?
How is it celebrated?
Valentine's day is a day of love. As such, it is common practice for students to show their gratitude or appreciations for others by offering them chocolate, offering letters, or any other gesture that you can think of. Aside from these, Holy Cross High School offers photo booths where you can take pictures with that special person, or an anonymous serenade you can send to someone.
