SACRED HEART CATHOLIC SCHOOL
BE A PART OF OUR TRADITION
Sacred Heart Catholic School is a community of faith responding to God’s call to proclaim the Gospel and provide educational opportunities for the youth of our parish and the community at large. Since 1890, Sacred Heart has been nurturing children in a faith-filled academic environment. We teach our students the skills to critically make conscious, creative decisions that will make them productive, active citizens who give back to their communities through the skills they acquire in their education and faith formation.
Be Spiritual
To say Faith is part of Sacred Heart would be selling the school short. Faith and Catholic tradition are immersed into everything the school does. Children and teachers are encouraged to talk about God and pray. Children from Preschool to High school attend Mass three days a week. Children are prepared for 1st Reconciliation, 1st Communion, and Confirmation. Students attend Adoration and Reconciliation on a regular basis. Religious formation classes are attended by all students on a daily basis. The faith at Sacred Heart is unwavering.

Be Prepared
Our school offers a rigorous academic environment. Our students receive a well rounded education. At Sacred Heart, our curriculum is designed to prepare students for admission to top colleges and universities, as well as for the challenges and choices they will face as productive citizens.
Be Competitive
Sacred Heart has a long standing tradition of excellence in sports. Our sports program is not based on an exclusive “try out” system but instead all children are encouraged to play sports to help develop them as a whole person. Coaches work tirelessly with students to help develop their talents into strong competitors. Students are taught about hard work, persistence, and excellence in all aspects of life.
Be Creative
Fine Arts are an important part of any quality education. Our students from Preschool to High School receive instruction in Spanish, art, and choir. Our school offers many fine art programs outside of school where children have the opportunity to display their talents. TAPPS One Act Play and Visual Art are just some of the many fine arts programs offered. All children are encouraged to participate to help develop them into a well-rounded person.
