The preschool program in this school is not good at all. It is a private school and over-crowed with 30 plus children in a class. would not recommend. My daughter learned little and did not receive the attention that a pre-school program should provide.

Math and Reading is weak at Sacred Heart. When students graduate from the school, they find that they have a hard time catching up. This causes a strain on students and they tend to fall behind. It's a shame because the teachers, staff, and principal are so wonderful. But of course, this is not sufficient.

A good school, dedicated principal but if your child fall left of the bell curve then you may find better resources elsewhere. Did not notice an above average education from the last 6 years spent here. Public school has been much better than here

This school is allright at most. The teachers are very strict and kids often have 6 or more homeworks a day. Think of your child and don 't send him/her here.

I have read all of the reviews posted here, and I truly agree with all of the positive ones and the review about 'nepotism' strikes me as odd and untrue. Our family has been part of the Sacred Heart School and Parish Community for over 20 years and I must say it is one of the best things that has happened
... Read more to us. Academically, two of my younger brothers graduated from Sacred Heart and got accepted to 2 of the best Catholic Highschools is the area. Now, I have 3 of my own children at the school, one since nursery and he is now in the 1st grade and presently 2 kids in nursery. Parent involvement is incredible, the warmth of the community as a whole is something NOT COMMONLY AVAILABLE NOWADAYS, and the principal is an exceptional man, caring and loving of the whole school and our kids!!!!

overall it is an average school for an average child. I do not like that students have the same teacher for the same subject 2 or 3 years in a row. There is also a lot of nepotism. Parental involvement is very high. The principal is very involved in all matters, but he does not take likely to suggestions.
