Holy Cross High School is an all-boys Roman Catholic high school in Flushing, in the New York City borough of Queens.Founded in 1955, the school was chartered by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York and accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. Located within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn, it is sponsored by the Brothers of Holy Cross. There is a 98% college placement rate.The School's team is the Holy Cross Knights and the school's arch athletic rival is the Saint Francis Prep High School Terriers. Since they are both located on Francis Lewis Boulevard approximately 2.5mi apart, when they play each other the game is called the Battle of the Boulevard.HistoryThe concept of the first all-boys Catholic high school in Queens was born on the campus of Notre Dame University in the early 1940s out of a friendship between Msgr. Edmund Reilly, pastor of St. Thomas Aquinas Church (Flatlands) and Rev. Frederick Schulte, CSC. The Brothers of Holy Cross were invited to staff the Boys' Department of St. Thomas Aquinas in 1944 and St. Francis of Assisi in 1947. Within two months after coming to St. Thomas Aquinas, the Brothers were invited to establish a high school in the Bayside West section of Queens.
