You do not have to be Catholic to attend Holy Family Catholic Schools. Holy Family warmly welcomes families of all faith traditions and in all stages of their faith journey.

While it's true that our schools provide an education rooted in the values and teachings of the Catholic faith, families of all backgrounds are invited to take part in our promise of educational excellence.  All students take part in opportunities to strengthen their knowledge of the Catholic faith, including weekly school Mass, theology coursework and daily prayer.

Every family has unique needs and circumstances, and tuition at Holy Family is not “one-size-fits-all.” Tuition assistance comes in many forms including:

• Education Savings Accounts
• STO tuition assistance (needs-based funding)
• Scholarships

More details about tuition assistance and scholarship opportunities as well as the universal application form can be found on our tuition assistance webpage.

There are no district assignments for Holy Family schools. Families are invited to choose the Holy Family school that they feel is the best fit for them, regardless of your address.

Transportation:

Depending on your address, school of choice and available routes, Holy Family students are eligible for busing offered by Dubuque Community School District transportation.

Those who do not have a bus route available are eligible for transportation reimbursement.
