Holy Cross Lake View SSS | Mission & Vision – Per Scientiam Ad Serviendum

Mission & Vision

Guided by the Holy Cross tradition, we commit ourselves to forming young people in mind, heart, and spirit — preparing them to be leaders of integrity, faith, and service.

Our Mission

As a Catholic institution rooted in the Holy Cross tradition, we are dedicated to forming young people in mind, heart, and spirit. We strive to provide a holistic education that nurtures academic excellence, moral integrity, and a lifelong commitment to service.

Through a balanced formation that integrates academics, faith, and co-curricular activities, we prepare our students to become responsible citizens and leaders who will transform their communities and the world with compassion, courage, and competence.

Educate the mind, touch the heart, transform the soul — that is our sacred duty.

Our Vision

To be a center of academic excellence and faith formation in Uganda and beyond — a beacon of hope that produces graduates who are intellectually competent, spiritually grounded, morally upright, and socially responsible.

We envision a community where every student discovers their God-given potential, develops a deep sense of purpose, and is empowered to serve as a transformative leader in the Church and society — living the Holy Cross motto: "Per Scientiam Ad Serviendum" (Education for Service).

The Cross Our Only Hope — we carry this hope into every classroom, every relationship, and every act of service.

Community & Family Spirit
We foster a welcoming, inclusive environment where every person is known, valued, and supported to grow — reflecting the family spirit of Holy Cross.
Respect for Creation
We honor God's creation by practicing environmental stewardship and promoting sustainable living on our hilltop campus.

The Holy Cross Charism

"Educators in Faith" — this is our calling. The Congregation of Holy Cross was founded on the belief that education is the most powerful means of transforming individuals and society. We embrace the spirituality of "The Cross Our Only Hope", finding strength and purpose in the cross of Christ.

Our founder, Blessed Basil Moreau, C.S.C., envisioned a community of teachers who would educate not only the mind but also the heart and the soul. This holistic vision guides everything we do at Holy Cross Lake View SSS — from classroom instruction to sports, from spiritual formation to community service.

"We shall always place education side by side with instruction; the mind will not be cultivated at the expense of the heart." — Blessed Basil Moreau, C.S.C.
