At St. Edward High School, our Holy Cross Mission and Heritage are at the heart of each and everything that we do. From our academic programs to our co-curricular activities, and from our fine arts to our athletics programs, our mission is to "educate the hearts and minds of a diverse group of young men to have the competence to see and the courage to act as men of hope for the transformation of the world."  The Office of Mission Effectiveness works to ensure that the charism and spirituality of the Congregation of Holy Cross is present in the lives of all of our students. We provide a wide variety of liturgy and prayer opportunities, an extensive array of retreat options, a four-year service learning curriculum as well as a number of school-wide service projects and programs. Additionally, we offer a number of leadership opportunities, calling all of our students to lives of Holy Cross Servant Leadership.
