Academic Expectations

Sacred Heart School expects students to perform to the best of their ability.  Teachers are expected to evaluate student progress on a regular basis.  Students will be given quizzes or tests regularly.  After the test is graded, it will be sent home for the parent to review and sign.  Parent signature indicates that the parent is aware of the student’s progress.  If a parent does not receive quizzes or tests to sign, the parent should contact the teacher.

Sacred Heart School provides excellence in education in the Catholic tradition for students in Pre-K 3 through Grade 8. Our course of study is deeply rooted in the teachings of Catholicism, and the traditions of our Church. We provide our students with a religious education curriculum approved by the Archdiocese of New York, and all New York State Learning Standards. Included in our philosophy is love of God, self, and others that is promoted in thought, word and deed each school day. We give our students an opportunity to live what we teach as part of every classroom experience.

We seek to educate the total person: spiritually, intellectually and physically. We endorse the development of each student’s personal spirituality through instruction in Catholic values. We provide the template for each student to achieve academic excellence. We expect to graduate students who strive to develop a strong sense of social justice and become capable of building Christian community, and thus giving service to the human family. We provide a highly skilled and dedicated faculty, self-contained classrooms, educational enrichment opportunities, with a hands-on approach to curriculum instruction.
