Moving Students
in the Right Direction

Founded in 1953, Sacred Heart School (SHS) is Danville, Virginia's only Catholic school and the city's oldest non-public school. SHS is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Virginia Catholic Education Association. All full-time faculty are certified by the State of Virginia.
From the Principal

Please keep Father Charles and his family in your prayers as they seek comfort and peace in the death of Father Charles' dad, Mr. Jerome Breindel.

English
Presentations
The 8th Grade Class presented formal English presentations this morning. Each student chose a controversial topic and presented the pros and cons of the topic. Each presentation was grounded in research and was preceded by the completion of a formal paper. Each of the students did a tremendous job and Miss Crowder is extremely proud and impressed with all of their hard work!

Surprise for Mrs. Meadows
The entire student body, faculty, and staff of SHS gathered together in the Holy Family Gym yesterday to surprise Mrs. Meadows on her birthday. Everyone sat in the darkened gym to await Mrs. Meadows' arrival. When she made her appearance, the entire school began to sing "Happy Birthday". She was truly surprised and said she had "no idea" what was going on... Thank you Mrs. Meadows for all that you do for us at SHS. You are truly a blessing to hundreds of lives.

Journalism Class Moves Forward!
The first on-line edition of the school’s newspaper, The Heatbeat , can
be seen by linking from our website this week. The class will no longer
be printing any hard copies for distribution. What a great way to save
money on printing costs, as well as give our students first-hand
experience with on-line publishing. The Journalism Class hopes that
you enjoy this new publication form!
