Message from the Principal

May 29th, 2025|

Dear Families of Holy Name,

We were informed by Escanaba Public Schools that we cannot use the Title I funds for all of our students in the summer academy. The funds are designated only for students who have received Title I services this school year and reside in the district of Escanaba. This essentially means only these qualifying students get no cost summer academy tuition.

That being said, we have a lot of interest in the summer academy. For non Title I students, the cost per child would be $240 for the four week program. It would be open to grades K-8.

The dates and times would be as follows:

  • July 7-10, 14-17. 21-24, 28-31 from 9am to noon.

Please fill out the following form to express your interest in the Holy Name Summer Academy by June 10, 2025

Peace and joy,

Nathan Vande Hey
Principal

Gym Entry Facelift

January 2nd, 2025|

Our Gym entryway has gotten a much needed facelift! Over break, the walls around the concession area were painted, and the ‘chicken wire’ on the concession stand is finally gone! Huge thanks go out to Henry Trottier and Travis Cary for all the hours they put in helping Tony give the space a Crusader feel, as well as Evelyn Trottier and Abby Derkos for their time painting the concession stand walls…and floor 

Looking forward to our Volleyball Saturday tournaments in February to really break it in!

Basketball & Cheer Season Wrap Up

December 20th, 2024|

Congratulations and Thank you to all involved in Boys Basketball and Cheerleading this past season. Thanks to the coaches, assistants, volunteer parents, and especially the young athletes who represented their school with pride and enthusiasm.

Some nice photos of our Cheer team below… The Cheer team completed the season with our boys basketball teams, and were excellent to have leading our crowd at games. They also showed up to walk along with our Christmas parade float.  The Little Cheer squad were great to have this season as well, learning some new skills and cheers, as well as our Holy Name Fight Song! Special shout out to Brynn Wyckoff and Elena Brancheau for stepping up to the main cheer squad when needed to fill spots during games, and for stunting… great job ladies!

Looking forward to seeing the boys progress in their basketball skill, and looking forward to Girls Volleyball season starting January 13th. Watch for information as we return to school after break!

Go Crusaders!
