Student Life

Activities

There are so many ways to get involved at Holy Names. I belong to the Nanotech and Future City clubs. I'm a student ambassador, and I would also really like to join SADD (Students Against Destructive Decision), but it's hard to fit it all in when I really want to do everything.

    • Holly Ball is a night of fun, formals, music, and dance, dance, dance!
