Sacred Heart teaches its students to feel empowered and brave. Brave enough to take on a world that will challenge them in many different ways over the course of a lifetime, but also feel safe enough to rely on their Sacred Heart community for support and encouragement.

From ensuring your child is taught in a safe environment, to surrounding themselves with positive role-models, one of the biggest questions parents ask themselves is where they should send their child to school. The most influential years of a person’s life are between the ages of 12 and 17 which makes high school a crucial steppingstone.

Educating your child during these informative years is a responsibility Sacred Heart School of Montreal is not only proud to embrace but also one that is not taken lightly. Ensuring a caring, safe, value-based education and inspirational environment for its students is what Sacred Heart is all about. The small class sizes allow for more individual attention and one-on-one guidance, whereas the all-girl environment offers a nurturing space for the students to flourish and reach their fullest potential.

Finding Her Voice
Since 1861, Sacred Heart has always been ahead of its time, deeming girls’ worthy of not only an education but one that goes over and above one's rights. Encouraging its students to thrive academically as well as socially, and to strive for greatness are all part of Sacred Heart’s fundamentals. The school is committed to developing young women of intellect, conviction, compassion and with a sense of justice for all.

Since girls learn differently than boys, all-girls’ schools are able to focus on girls’ unique learning styles. Imagine being taught by educators who understand and appreciate the way girls learn.  Imagine walking the hallways with images gracing the walls of past & present inspirational female leaders and role models, feeling that could very well be you one day. Imagine feeling supported on a daily basis by your educators and peers, encouraging you to take center stage and speaking up for what you believe in. Wouldn’t you feel like your future is full of wonder and opportunity? The young women of Sacred Heart experience this every day, and are then inspired to become informed, engaged global citizens who lead with confidence and grace.

She Matters
Opening in the Fall of 2022 is the new Julia Cianci Wellness Centre, where students, faculty, staff and alumnae can benefit from wellness services that support physical, mental and emotional health. Creating a space that offers an opportunity to participate, engage and communicate freely while making one's health a priority is one of the many ways Sacred Heart has chosen to enhance the student experience.

Endless Possibilities
Girls’ schools have a long history of engaging girls in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) subjects and Sacred Heart is no exception. The students are encouraged from their first day of school to engage in an array of activities and subjects that allow their interests to expand. From robotics and coding club to advanced math, graduates leave Sacred Heart with a plethora of opportunities at their doorstep.

Research has shown that graduates of girls’ schools are six times more likely to consider majoring in math, science, and technology and three times more likely to consider engineering compared to girls who attended coed schools.

Sacred Heart graduates are perfect examples as they have been accepted to some of the most prestigious and world-renowned universities, into science programs such as Physics, Biochemistry and Industrial Engineering, to Business and Arts…The possibilities are endless.

When joining Sacred Heart, you develop a common goal with the faculty, staff, parents and alumnae. That goal is to come together and encourage students to follow their ambitions while supporting them each step of the way, because Sacred Heart is not just a school. At its core, it's a community.
