At Sacred Heart Catholic School, we recognize parents as the primary educators of their children.
We prepare children for the present and the future by joining with their parents and the Church to instill in them a strong sense of Catholic Christian faith, service and hospitality, spiritual community of faith, with inner discipline, moral discernment, as well as academic excellence. Along with the Diocese of Phoenix, we strive for the integration of faith, which is taught and experienced, and which sets the Catholic school apart from all other forms of education.
