From the Office

Congratulations to our Graduates!

Last night Sacred Heart School celebrated another successful graduation of 35 eighth grade students. I want to thank them for all of their hard work. I also want to thank their parents and teachers who led and supported them along the way. Finally, I want to thank everyone who worked hard to make the day's events so memorable. Click here for a complete list of our graduates and the high schools they will be attending in the fall. Next week we will publish a complete list of the award recipients from this year's graduation. - Mr. Burroughs

Used Uniforms

Next year only the new logo with the small emblem will be the only sweatshirt design allowed. We have a large inventory of old used sweatshirts that we would love to donate. If anyone has a suggestion or a contact of an organization where we could donate the sweatshirts that would be wonderful. Please contact Kerry Wyman if you have any ideas.

Lost and Found

Please take a moment in the next two weeks to come into the school and check the lost and found closet.  It is extremely full of unmarked clothing (especially after Field Day) and other miscellaneous items.  Please also note a pair of children's glasses in a solid black case has been turned into the front desk.

6th Grade Fundraiser for Heritage University Popcorn and Bake Sale

Make your calendars for Wednesday, June 15th for the Heritage University Popcorn and Bake Sale Fundraiser.  Our 6th graders will be in both the upper and lower lots after school selling popcorn and baked goods to raise money for Heritage University.    The tradition of supporting Heritage University began when our current 6th grade class were in the 3rd grade with Mrs. Koreski.  Each year this class has continued  the tradition by raising money to help with the costs of books and tuition for students in need at Heritage University.   Please stop by and support our 6th graders.
