Free Breakfast is also available everyday at 7:20. Students who want breakfast can just come in the school building and we will escort them to the Grey Room for breakfast.

Beyond the Bell is available for Sacred Heart School students after school until 5:00. The program is intended to assist parents with their schedule for picking up their children.

There is no Beyond the Bell on 1/2 days of school.

If you plan to use this program at any time during the year, the Beyond the Bell Form should be returned during the first week of school so we have an idea of how many families will be using this service. Once you are in the system, you can call the office for a change in schedule or to let us know if your child will stay for Beyond the Bell.

Thank you to the people who shared their time and talents to make the school attractive, functional and clean as we begin the school year!

Thank You Parents who helped get the playground ready:

Travis Ault, Greg and Allisyn Hoffman, Cassie Laux, Liz Marry, David and Denise Monahan, Ashley and James Stark and to Robert Czeiszperger who helped us with technology set up.

Thank you to our alumni and Knights of Columbus (hot dog duty):

Steve Kope, John Monahan and Tim Stanley who are always helpful with the extra maintenance work that needs to be done.

Thank You Teachers:

Our teachers pour their hearts into making the classroom a special place for your children to learn and grow! I watch them prepare the space with care and love, with the goal of creating a classroom where children can make lasting memories as they face challenges and thrive for knowledge each day.

Please consider helping where you can. There is value to working, building, problem solving and laughing together as a school community. Your children love to see us all working together as families of faith who cherish Sacred Heart School.

Blessings,

Anne Atkin, principal
