The Counseling Center is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m.- 4:00 p.m.

Sacred Heart Academy’s Counseling Center is staffed by two full time school counselors and one Administrative Assistant. As student advocates and in accordance with SHA’s mission we believe all students are capable of reaching their potential in mind, body and spirit. We work closely with students, faculty, parents, administrators and staff to ensure academic success enhances personal development.

Our Counseling Center is on hand to assist students with college preparation and career planning beginning in their freshwoman year and continuing through graduation. Through this program on college and career counseling, which encompasses individual and group classes, family sessions, referrals, testing, career-choice assessments and technology support, each student and her family receives the support and guidance necessary to complete a successful college search, apply for available scholarships and financial aid, and choose a college that is right for her.

At Sacred Heart Academy we are committed to ensuring our graduates are well prepared to succeed in the university setting and to be contributing, caring members of society.
