True to its motto Excelsior, Sacred Heart Academy is committed to the pursuit of excellence in all areas of school life. Strong academic curriculum and supportive Christian community encourage growth and maturity in young women. Sacred Heart students are challenged and inspired to become informed citizens who share joy in learning and a love of truth. The School fosters values of compassion, integrity, trust, justice, responsibility and courage. Everyone is expected to uphold high standards of behavior in an atmosphere of sensitivity and mutual respect. A Sacred Heart Academy education instills an appreciation and zeal for Christian living and a tradition of charity rooted in the Love of Christ.

The Sacred Heart Academy Shield

The Shield embodies the spirit and ideals of Sacred Heart Academy. The Sacred Heart, emblazoned with the motto Excelsior (Ever higher), contains several symbols: the lamp (spiritual light illuminating our path); the book (unending quest for knowledge); the crown (ultimate goal--sanctity); chevronels radiating from the Heart (the Glory of Christ); and laurel (victory and success "through Him, with Him, and in Him".)
