Since opening its doors in 1926, Sacred Heart has provided its students with a holistic learning experience, helping them grow academically, spiritually, and creatively and preparing them for academic and professional achievement. Using traditional Catholic values as a guide, children learn and mature in a safe environment. Each day from 8 am to 4 pm, our students are taught by a dedicated faculty
who engage their intellect and imagination. Student learning also is supported by a variety of educational resources including a fully equipped science lab, iPads and Chrome books, and SMARTBoards in every classroom. In addition, children participate in art, music and physical education classes each week and benefit from partnerships with the New York Philharmonic, Metropolitan Opera Guild, and Dancing Classrooms, ballroom dancing program. Sacred Heart is thrilled to be one of six Catholic schools in Harlem and the south Bronx that is part of the Partnership Schools network. With the Partnership’s support, Sacred Heart is building upon its strong Catholic school foundation. In doing so, the school is remaining faithful to what is known and loved about us and will continue to offer its students the following:
• Challenging, high achieving academic program
• Broad program including arts, music, sports, community service and technology
• Expanded after-school programming
• High school placement program
The school is also focused on strengthening its operations and finances and building partnerships with its current parents and alumni, so that it can continue to serve as a beacon of the Highbridge community for years to come.
