As we anticipate the parent conversations regarding our living of the Goals and Criteria of Sacred Heart Education, I’m inviting you to reflect on one Goal each week between now and our special General PCC Meeting on March 27.
This week, I invite you to consider GOAL 2 and its criteria:
Schools of the Sacred Heart commit themselves to
A DEEP RESPECT FOR INTELLECTUAL VALUES
- The school develops and implements a curriculum based on the Goals and Criteria, educational research and ongoing evaluation.
- The school provides a rigorous education that incorporates all forms of critical thinking and inspires a life-long love of learning.
- The school program develops aesthetic values and the creative use of the imagination.
- The faculty utilizes a variety of teaching and learning strategies that recognizes the individual needs of the students.
- The school provides ongoing professional development for faculty and staff.
- Members of the school community model and teach ethical and respectful use of technology.
As you reflect on how we live this Goal, you may wish to view a snapshot of various aspects of learning here at the Academy:
United with you in our attempts to foster a lifelong love of learning and pursue the truth,
