Curriculum

Academy of the Sacred Heart’s college preparatory academic program in the Upper School is strong and challenging. Committed to educating to a deep respect for intellectual values, the Upper School at Academy of the Sacred Heart seeks to inspire students to a lifelong love of learning. Our academic program across all divisions is founded upon our mission: to inspire young women to lead and serve, through lives of purpose that integrate faith, intellect, community, social action, and personal growth in an atmosphere of wise freedom. The Upper School program is designed to nurture and inspire young women to develop their gifts, to build empathy and compassion for their world, and to gain confidence in the knowledge that their lives have meaning, promise, and purpose.
