SHA students shine by being recognized by the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards! Congratulations to Emma Cullinan, Elizabeth Rizzo, Charlotte Preall, Lily DiPino, Andrea Pascu, Julianna Capraro, Isabella De Palma (not pictured), Julie Rosellon, Hailey Peter, Abigail Vasconez, Avril Desir, Sameera Rampertab, and Lucia Guerra.
Students entering the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards created original works in one of the following writing categories, poetry, short stories, or personal memoirs. Submissions are judged on originality, technical skill, and the emergence of a personal voice or vision. At the regional level, Honorable Mentions recognize promising work, Silver Keys are awarded to strong pieces in the top 7–10% of submissions, and Gold Keys—the highest regional honor—are given to the top 5–7%, with only Gold Key recipients advancing to national consideration. Past winners include some of the most influential writers of the 20th and 21st centuries, such as Stephen King, Joyce Carol Oats, and Sylvia Plath.
Sacred Heart Academy is proactively designating Wednesday, February 12, 2025 as an Asynchronous Day of instruction.
SHA has the proven ability to provide excellent academics both in-person and virtually. In order to ensure that all students, especially our 9th graders, are comfortable with the college readiness skills of remote learning, we will use tomorrow (2/12) as an asynchronous learning day.
Sacred Heart's Mock Trial team put on a strong performance last week, going up against George W Hewlett High School.

Let's go SHA! #LeadWithHeart
For Mrs. Haun's Theology 10 classes project titled, “Who Do You Say That I Am?” Students were asked to imagine that friends who practice a different faith asked them to make a Google Slides presentation about Jesus to a group of peers from their synagogue, mosque, or temple. The project focuses on highlighting the many cultures of the world and their understanding and representation of Jesus Christ. On each slide they had to include an image of Jesus from different countries in various styles. The images were culturally diverse and varied in artistic style. The slides included a theological quote or scripture verse from the New Testament that further explains Who Jesus is. When all of these images and understandings are brought together they show the central teaching that Christ is for ALL people. That it is in diversity that humanity’s beauty is fully captivated. #LeadWithHeart

The SHA Girls Giving Back Club led their first service project with the Operation Gratitude organization. Presidents Katherine Mazaroski and Anna Calabrese led this project! This story was recently submitted to the Loukoumi Organization for their inspiring stories publication and was accepted to be published in late April. Here is what Katherine had to say about the campaign, "I was motivated for this project as my father served in the U.S. Navy, and I have held a very close relationship with the veterans in my community. In creating a service club, I wanted our first project to be dedicated toward shedding light on and empowering our service members, and the club felt this project allowed us to involve the rest of the SHA community in that goal."
