FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New Orleans, LA— On behalf of the Holy Cross School Board of Directors and the Congregation of Holy Cross, Moreau Province, it is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that we announce the appointment of Mr. Justin Fleetwood as the 19th President of Holy Cross School, effective January 6, 2025.
Mr. Fleetwood is a Holy Cross alumnus, having graduated from Holy Cross School, New Orleans, in 1991. While at Holy Cross, he was recognized for his academic achievements, Christian leadership, and service to our school. He received his Bachelor of Arts in English Education from the University of New Orleans and his Master of Arts in Private School Education Administration from the University of San Francisco. He has devoted the past 30 years of his life and career to the mission of Catholic education, with 20 of those years in administration and school leadership roles.
Upon acceptance of his new role, Mr. Fleetwood commented, “It has long been my goal to return to my alma mater, to the charism that started the formation of the man I am today, a charism based in the Holy Cross Man and our school’s motto—Crux Spes Unica.”
We could not be more excited for Mr. Fleetwood to get started and to build upon the great legacy of Holy Cross in New Orleans that started in 1849.
