Learning Support Services

Sacred Heart Schools endeavors to create a culture that promotes self-esteem, a positive attitude toward learning and the optimal attainment of the educational goals of every student in our community. We seek to assist students to realize their potential in an environment that promotes self-awareness, self-motivation and self-advocacy in a comprehensively accessible environment.

Learning Specialist for Grades 1-8

The Learning Services department provides academic-related support for grades 1-8 with the goal of helping each student reach his/her fullest potential.  The Director of Learning Services works with students, parents and faculty to target areas of need and develop instructional strategies for addressing different learning needs. Through monitoring student progress, developing individualized learning plans for qualifying students, and coordinating  at school or outside services, the department works to give all of our students the tools to achieve success in the classroom and beyond.

The Center for Student Success

The Center for Student Success (CSS) is staffed with two full-time teachers and a Board Certified Educational Therapist.  The CSS provides academic support for all students in grades 9-12. Faculty and learning resource specialists provide assistance to students with subject tutoring, study skills, time management and test-taking strategies. The Center also coordinates on-campus and College Board accommodations for students with verified learning differences. CSS is open 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.every day.
