The Timothy J. McDonald Scholarship was established at the time of his passing. For decades as President and Principal of Holy Cross, Timothy J. McDonald was devoted to the academic, emotional, and spiritual growth and success of all students in his care. For him, Holy Cross was a home for families and students to pursue the pillars of excellence within an unwavering culture of respect, kindness, honor, pride, and spirituality. Mr. McDonald believed that the opportunities and genuine goodness of Holy Cross should be attainable for young men and women of all socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds in the Greater Waterbury region. With his personal code and belief system in mind, this scholarship will make his vision a reality for students of financial need for years to come.
