Sacred Heart School

If you dont mind the working class parents being a click and the stuck up parents being in another click...please feel free to have your children attend this school. Things have gone downhill since Mrs. Torcolini has left and Ms. Dean has taken over. It has more so became a school that looks to getting money then anything else. CLass sizes have been gradually increasing and my kids have class sizes of over 34 students. It seems like they have more homework then myself an I am getting my masters in college. They dont seem to understand that majority of the schoolwork should be done AT SCHOOL. I feel like I have to teach them at home because they are not learning at school. Work of advise to all parents, just because this is a private school .... i would research charter schools and save your money for their college education. I am a parent of 2 kids at SHS and have been there for 4 years ... I am pulling them out this next school year. Not worth it.

Sacred Heart is a great school. My son is really happy. After, passing for a hard time been in PG at RHD school he was unhappy and not support. As soon I found out about my soon needs I started searching for a private school thank you very much for the principal, teachers and staff they give us all the support to my son to improve all his skills in reading and math specially his confidence thank soo much! It's worth it driving every day from Monterey to Salinas to drop my son to school he is happy and am happy:)

My two children currenlty attend Sacred Heart School and I am pleased to see such wonderful changes both in faculty and curriculum. The staff and parent board are definitley making some great advances for the school. New curriculum has been adapted to keep our children up to par in all subjects when they graduate. New smart boards have been installed in the classrooms which also helps the students a great deal in this age of everchanging technology.

Sacred Heart School is really taking strides that are ahead of traditional Cathlic education. Not only do they provde a Christ-centered education with weekly masses and beautiful morning assemblies, but they are improving the use of technology in the school as well. They are putting Smart boards in the classrooms. I am so pleased I chose Sacred heart for my child. I know he will come out with a solid academic background and firm Catholic morals.

Sacred Heart School is a fantastic school. You can't find a better faculty! They are warm, understanding, and very professional. The students are very happy and at times don't want to leave at the end of the day. They develop close relationships and grow spiritually and academically.

I have 2 children currently enrolled in SHS and I have absolutely NO PROBLEM with any of the staff members and or students. My kids love it there, the students are well behaved, religion is taught, education is way up to par compared to other schools and you do not need to fork out your checkbook in order to get problems handled at this school. Parent involvement is outstanding and thats what makes this school shine! You will have peace of mind leaving your child there compared to other schools. I have 4 children and plan to enroll my other 2 when the time comes.

I come from several generations of Madonna del Sasso graduates in my family, and I chose Sacred Heart School over Madonna for my own children. The atmosphere on campus is one of collaboration between the faculty, staff and parents, and the overwhelming sense of family and community is the reason I chose Sacred Heart. I know that my children will be raised by a 'village' that has the same christ-centered morals and values I seek as a Catholic parent.

I am so pleased I have chosen SHS for my 2 children. The school provides a well rounded curriculum and faith based values that we cherise as a family. The faculty is outstanding and dedicated to the student's needs as well as their potentials as individuals. We are so lucky to have a new principal this year who's focus is on strengthing our current curriculum, as well as enhancing areas such as math and science. Both my children have benefited from having 1 class per grade. It provides stability and consistency for them. They have built friendships that will last a lifetime. I know at SHS, my children are safe while they are at school, which is very important to me. We are so proud to be a part of Sacred Heart School!

This school provides a great academic and christian enviornment. The children are all part of a large family that care for one another. The faculty are very strong in their academic teaching as well as their ability to support each individual student. No school is without their faults or drawbacks, however I feel this school well rounded.

Teachers and staff are dedicated to providing a high quality education for students. Sacred Heart school completed their WASC review this spring and received excellent reviews and a 6 year accreditation.
