Welcome Here at Sacred Heart School we firmly believe that parents are the primary educators of their children. But that we, as a Catholic Community, have a commitment to aid in educating spiritually, academically and culturally to promote faith and learning which is life-long and life giving. Our students work hard to preserve and respect the richness of the past, meet the challenges of the present, and prepare for a better future. We expect nothing less than the best your child has to offer.
Yours in Christ,
Aurora Guerra Principal
Parish Affiliation: Sacred Heart School has been supported and encouraged by Sacred Heart Church since 1900. Father Brule wanted to do more for the community, so he brought four sisters to open the first Catholic school in San Felipe Del Rio. Sister Adolph was the first Superior of the school in a small two-room frame building, big enough to accommodate 40 children of all ages in September 1900. Sacred Heart Catholic School is a parish school under the Pastor of Sacred Heart Church, Reverend James Fischler, C.I.C.M.
Accreditation: The Texas Catholic Conference Education Department (TCCED) and Accreditation Commission coordinate and supervise the accreditation of all Catholic Schools in the state of Texas under the Texas Education Agency. Sacred Heart School is an accredited institution and will renew accreditation in the Fall of 2004.
