Convent of the Sacred Heart

I have been attending CSH for almost 6 years now and I am happy with my school experience. The teachers are very caring, and encourage questions and any confusion you may have to expand your knowledge. My classmates are friendly, and being only in middle school, I feel that I will be friends with some of these girls for a very long time. People are very confident (in a good way) and know how to be who they are, and not fall under peer pressure or pretend to be someone they're not. The school opens your mind to your greatest potential, and pushes you to try your best, without putting on too much pressure. The atmosphere as the school is very open and welcoming, and whenever you enter the school, you feel as if you are home, not at school. Whenever I come to school in the morning, I am prepared for another fantastic day at CSH. I would definitely recommend sending your daughter(s) here when applying to schools, as I can almost assure that their time spend here will not be of waste.

Prior notation obviously written by one of the elitist, spoiled, unemployable women masquarding as a mother- only downfall of school. Excellent teachers, scholarly, caring and devoted to any tenacious, hard working girls.

This is a wonderful place for the RIGHT girl. The RIGHT girl is catholic, of average intelligence, compliant, and willing to sit still at a desk and do worksheets. There is NO adaptation for students of above average intelligence, and with the school's commitment to diversity, there are many girls with learning issues. The bright girls are forced to sit and listen as the teachers drone on to teach the girls who have trouble catching on (and there are many of these). The all girl environment leads to some serious social difficulties, while the faculty struggle to keep things on an even keel, many girls who do not conform to the teary girl model are often left to fend for themselves. A great school for the RIGHT girl..there are just not as many of them as are forced into the doors.

My daughter has attended CSH for 3 yrs now. We are considering moving her to another school (will wait one more year). Our daughter would like more challenging work, but we were told it would not be fair to the other girls. No the tuition is not an issue.

Sacred Heart is an excellent place for any student as it offers superb academics, athletics, and social environment that is conducive for a successful education. I loved every second there and now attend Princeton, something I wouldn't be able to do without the help of my teachers and peers. Thanks Ms. Casey!

I've been to ALOT of schools over the years and now I'm back at CSH. I have diabetes and have missed alot of school thrpughout my life, and CSH was the only school that has shown me compassion and acceptance. They accomodated me when I was sick and waived the work when I was in the hospital. the girls were never mean to me, and I was greeted with hugs when I saw them. It was too easy at the other schools to be made fun of for it, or for me to get bad grades because I constantly missed class because of something that was out of my control. And even though the highschool is really hard, when you get to college, its so easy because you learned time management. Overall, CSH is a GREAT school and I implore you to look at it.

I have been going to Sacred Heart for 10 years now, and I am leaving next year. My years there have been very worth while and have receved a solid foundaton of education. Definitely, I had a better experence then I would of had at public school. The admissions thing is a little screwed up. There are people gong here who are certainly not up to the academic standard which hurts the ovarall class. The academcs are tradtional for a local private school, but certainly not nearly the best in the nation. An A at Sacred Heart is more like a B- at the top schools in the country. Im gong to go out and say t, the athletcs are horrible. The field space is lacking and the teams are crammed into very small practce facilities. None of the varsty teams are compettve at all, which is a shame. thanks

I'm not sure what that other person was talking about, but this school is a great school. I go there and I am in the seventh grade. The work load is a little intense, but that will only help me in the years to come. We are one big community, and I know everyone in my grade and we are like sisters. In the mornings, we all fit in one classroom comfortably and even if it means sitting on someone else's lap, we all feel at home. The classes are amazing. Every one of them is interesting and fun. The teachers encourage your hardest efforts because there is no grade inflation. The 5 goals play a large part in our school. The values that the school instill in us is appreciable to the greatest extents. This is a school where your history teacher will give you a ride home.
