Cognia School of Distinction Award

This year Cognia, the global nonprofit school improvement organization, recognized 23 schools in the United States and four other countries across the globe as 2025 Cognia Schools or Systems of Distinction. Sacred Heart School was among the more than 1,110 eligible institutions that hosted a Cognia Accreditation Engagement Review during the 2024-2025 school year. 

The administration and faculty are honored to announce that Sacred Heart School has been selected as a 2025 Cognia School of Distinction, a program which recognizes public and non-public institutions that exemplify excellence in education and service to learners.

During the 2024-2025 school year, Sacred Heart School participated in Cognia’s rigorous Accreditation Engagement Review process, which is grounded in research-based performance standards. The process includes a third-party review of evidence by education experts, interviews and assessment of performance data. The review evaluates institutions and seeks evidence of growth in student learning and performance, a healthy culture for learning, engaging and high-quality instructional environments and effective leadership for learning—all characteristics Cognia expects to see in quality schools that also demonstrate a commitment to continuous improvement. 

Being named a School of Distinction further acknowledges Sacred Heart’s commitment to education quality and a mindset of continuous improvement.

Our school continues its mission to the commitment of providing an environment which instills the morals, values and ethics to the Catholic faith, enhances academic excellence and encourages social development.
