Olive Oil Bottling
Valparaiso Vineyards Olive Oil is a Sacred Heart signature. Last year our preschool-12th grade students and educators harvested close to one thousand pounds of olives and our alumni and parents of alumni came together to bottle and label the finished product - nearly ten pounds of olive oil that was sold at the annual Holiday Boutique fundraiser. Join us to bottle this year's harvest.

Whether your child(ren) attended SHS recently or several years ago, you will always be considered part of our community. As parents of alumni (PALs), you play an important role in connecting our past, present, and future. Your continued involvement helps ensure that our school thrives well into the next century.
The PALs program offers multiple ways to reconnect with old friends, learn about new school initiatives, and stay active within our vibrant community. From spiritual, enrichment, and service activities, to athletic, arts, and social events--whatever your interest. PALs e-newsletters enable you to stay up-to-date on the latest news and special invitations.
With so many families rooted in the Sacred Heart community for the duration of their children's academic years--a span that can last up to 15 years per child, preschool through grade 12--it's no wonder that parents of alumni remain among our most ardent school supporters. PALs class reps help keep Gator Nation alive, maintaining communication between the school and PALs, promoting events, and keeping the school apprised of alumni news and changing contact information. They help ensure past parent connections and interests are maintained with each other and Sacred Heart Schools.
The SHP Class of 2025 PALs Class Reps are:
Tiffany Bassett
Danielle Kling
Alex Matei
Cynthia Norris
Diane Schmalzle
Julianne Wagner

SHS Dads' First Fridays: Faith and Fellowship.FRIDAY'S MONTHLY DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR
Dads' First Fridays (DFF)
8:30 to 9:00 a.m. Otto Library, Main Building
Dads' First Fridays (DFF) is a community of Sacred Heart dads (current and past SHS parents) who gather on the first Friday of the month (and at other times) to cultivate friendship and to share about family, professional life, and faith. A typical Friday format is to spend a few minutes informally catching up with one another, then quietly reflecting on a passage from Scripture. We wrap up by discussing the implications of that passage on our personal, family, and work lives.DFF has been variously described as, "Unlike the other 99% of my week," "Challenging, in the best sense," "A great opportunity to get to know dads from across the SHS community," and "A gathering that helps me become a better family man." Come check it out, and bring a friend.SHS FAMILY MASS SERIESCelebrate our shared Catholic faith on Sacred Heart grounds, as we come together in faith and SHS fellowship. Family Masses are held on the Sacred Heart campus up to three times an academic year.Contact alumni@shschools.org for dates. -
