Teachers don't teach. Only a few of them will even care about the grades a student gets. Faculty is terrible and doesn't care about the wellbeing of students as much as the teachers do. Office faculty is incompetent and loses important papers all the time. Important information never reaches the students properly. Principal is consistently absent. Dress code is way too strict. Tuition money seemingly goes nowhere that benefits the students. Speaking of students, most of them are racist, mysoginistic brats that don't ever get in trouble no matter what they do because they're a "valued" member of a sports team. No music opportunities at all. Art program is funded mostly by the teacher herself and the club part is dying. The only good thing i have to say about this school is the drama club, it's amazingly organized and a welcoming environment; probably because it's entirely funded by fundraisers and the school actually has no part in it at all. Just don't waste your money sending your kid here, I spent my entire school career here (kindergarten included) and trust me when I say you will destroy your kid's opportunities if they go here.

This school has really impressed me. It truly is like a family that not only understands the importance of academic excellence but the urgency of nurturing, guiding, and protecting our children. My child has had a wonderful first year of high school and the moment he needed support, the Sacred Heart administrative team comprised of Father Maurice, principal Dececco, and their guidance counselors responded immediately in a fair and respectable manner. The teachers go above and beyond on a daily basis and are the main reason why my child feels comfortable and engaged at this school. As a parent, my child's academics are a priority, but their safety and emotional happiness are a NON NEGOTIABLE and for this reason we give this school 5 stars. I am so grateful for this school and all they do!
