“Sharing the Sacred Heart experience with my sisters and friends has given the gift of life-long connections. As SHA girls, there is no question we can accomplish anything we set our minds to!”
“Sacred Heart teaches the importance of friendship, family, and community all while building a sound educational foundation. The support students receive from faculty and friends help to foster a positive learning environment throughout the school. SHA helped challenge me to find my own strengths and improve my weaknesses. I am forever grateful for my years at SHA!”
“Sacred Heart gave me leadership opportunities I could never have had elsewhere. My experiences were so varied, and I know this will benefit me as I go off to college and beyond!”
“Sacred Heart taught us that family and friends, caring for others, and the Sacred Heart Himself are what life is all about. This has made decisions easier and life more meaningful. “
“SHA graduates have no limits to their future endeavors.”
“It is all about the lasting friendships that we can call upon at any time for help.”
Alumnae and Friends
The connections that begin at Buffalo Academy of the Sacred Heart extend far beyond graduation. Every year, alumnae and friends return to the Academy to attend Alumnae Sunday, Class Reunions, Sports Night, Spirit of SHA Scholarship & Awards Dinner, Sandstone, Memorial Mass, and other special gatherings. Alumnae, near and far, also partner with the Academy in support of the spiritual, educational, and physical development of our young women as they serve as mentors, host interns, or speakers at Career Day.
The Office of Advancement, which is comprised of the Development and Alumnae Offices, is committed to serving our Sacred Heart Academy community. We aim to keep our extended family of alumnae, parents, and friends connected with each other and the Academy. We strive to secure and develop the resources to support our students and faculty now and well into the future. Through a variety of fundraising programs, alumnae events, and publications, we hope to share the good news of the Academy, foster relationships, and build support for this remarkable institution. Alumnae and friends are encouraged to visit Sacred Heart often - whether personally, or virtually, through this website.
From this section, alumnae, parents, and friends can learn about upcoming events, keep in touch with one another, and become involved in Sacred Heart Academy today. We invite you to share your time, talents, and treasures!
