Sacred Heart Elementary School is a Catholic school serving students in TK through eighth grade. Prayer and gospel are observed each day, and the school follows a strict Diocesan academic plan that includes classes in religion, reading and literature, language arts, science, history, physical education and math.
The school was established in 1934 and has seen generations of families pass through its doors — many of whom have gone on to nearby Catholic high schools.
About 310 students attend Sacred Heart, with a student-teacher ratio of about 35-to-1. The school is known for its strong community and parental involvement.
In addition to the regular school day, the school offers before- and after-school programs and extracurricular activities, including an art docent program, science Olympiad program and field trips.
Students attend mass together and work with their teachers to prepare liturgies and readings, as well as participate in altar services. The school proudly considers itself a small, neighborhood, Catholic school.
Students must apply to attend Sacred Heart. Admission is not guaranteed.

I would give this school 0 stars in all categories if I could. What you’re reading in the negative reviews is sadly true. First, the lower grade teachers are very young and highly inexperienced; they simply do not have the skill set to manage these kids - especially if you do not have a child that p...

Attended this school K-8 and graduated in 2011. The schools is so steeped in classism, ableism, racism, misogyny, really just all the gross systems we live in. If you required special attention, you were often forced out of the school. Self expression was deeply discouraged unless it fit the rich, w...

Our children went to this school and what people are saying negatively about the school is true. Why would do many people make the same comments? The principal speaks badly about families that leave the school and teachers are afraid to say how they feel about her leadership. Sacred Heart parish and...

This school is a hate filled environment with lacking academics and unsporting teachers. Along with this you have unprofessional teachers with ineffective methods of teaching. Not the mention the groups of parents who always get there way even when they are in the wrong.
