Extra-Curricular Activities
At Sacred Heart Academy we believe that each student is endowed with unique gifts. SHA offers a wide variety of extracurricular clubs and activities, to allow our students to develop their gifts and talents, and to explore areas of interest to them.
Whether they are performing on stage in the school musical, writing a case for a debate, going to a French restaurant for a French club dinner, or delivering donations for a Catholic League baby shower drive, SHA students can almost always find a club or activity that matches their interests. If the club or activity doesn't exist, students can, as they have in the past, start their own activities.
Participation in clubs and activities allows students to meet each other and form lasting friendships. It also fosters a unique opportunity for faculty members to relate to students outside of the classroom.
