Sacred Heart School also fosters a family type atmosphere where each child is known and valued as an individual. We strive to help each student become more respectful, responsible and resourceful. This translates into students who are respectful toward adults and each other, responsible for their personal behavior and their academic work and resourceful problem solvers. In short, we try very hard to support the Catholic values that you as parents are teaching at home. In Catholic schools we have learned to do a lot with a little. We have remained focused on our main mission - a sound moral focus and solid academic achievement. At Sacred Heart we also strive to make students aware of the world at large and encourage them to respond to the needs of other people, the sick and suffering in their own families and neighborhoods as well as those in third world countries or the victims of natural disasters.
