Admissions
-
Sacred Heart School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, age, disability or national origin. The school has set admission priorities for students. In addition, certain conditions related to a student’s academic and behavioral background may also influence admission and certain circumstances may require full Council approval. Prospective students’ most recent standardized tests are subject to assessment, and each student is subject to being interviewed. Home-School students will take course content exams to validate Carnegie units in courses pursued prior to admission. Units earned from non-accredited institutions will not be accepted.

PARENT COOPERATION STATEMENTAn integral part of the educational philosophy of Sacred Heart School is the conviction that the school assists the parents/guardians in carrying out their primary responsibility of providing for the religious and secular education of their children. An ongoing positive working relationship between the parents/guardians and the school is critical to the success of the school and the students. As part of that working relationship, parents/guardians are expected to be involved as much as possible in the educational process, to refrain from conduct which thwarts the orderly administration and operation of the school, to support and participate in school activities and to provide instruction to and set positive examples for their children both at home and in the community. While Sacred Heart School encourages the constructive exchange of ideas, feedback and suggestions intended to foster the continued growth and improvement of the school, the Sacred Heart School Administration is ultimately responsible for the orderly administration and operation of the school, including the enforcement of policies and procedures implemented to achieve the school’s goals. Sacred Heart School reserves the right to terminate the enrollment of any student(s) in the event that it is determined by the school’s administration that (1) a positive working relationship between the school and the parents/guardians no longer exists and/or is irreparably damaged or (2) that the parents/guardians have failed to provide the support, assistance and example necessary for the religious and secular education to which each child is entitled. Furthermore, failure on the part of any student and/or parent/guardian to abide by the rules, regulations and policies as outlined in the school handbook may result in termination of the student’s enrollment from the school.
