Experiencing the unique culture of Nicaragua, engaging in the Spanish language, and meeting many amazing new people has given me a new perspective on the global reach that Sacred Heart students have to make a difference in the world.

The Many Voices of ASH
At Sacred Heart, our students are strong and confident thinkers who lead by example and who learn to use their own minds and words. Faith. Academics. Service. Community. Growth. These 5 goals of a Sacred Education are more than a mission … they are our passion. From the faculty and staff who challenge them to the parents who inspire them and to the many alumnae who walked the halls as leaders before them, everyone has a unique story.
Here are just a few of the many voices:
