President's Welcome

Welcome to the Sacred Heart Academy website! This is a place to discover the unique mission and culture that has made Sacred Heart Academy a recognized school of excellence for over 70 years. 

As an all-girls Catholic college preparatory school, rooted in the spirituality and tradition of the Sisters of St. Joseph, Sacred Heart fills an important role on Long Island. The all-girls environment provides unique learning opportunities that cultivate confidence and leadership skills, and encourages our students to “take the lead.”  

Each day, more than 850 girls learn and grow in a community that supports them to become their best selves - and it shows.  90% of the Class of 2020 were awarded college scholarships in the areas of academics, athletics and the arts. Our athletic teams are consistently ranked among the best on Long Island and our student-artists and dancers excel in local and national competitions. Our Bloomberg Finance Lab and state-of-the-art Science Research Lab prepare students for competitive opportunities and provide real-world experiences. Above all, SHA students are critical thinkers who actively integrate their education into their lives and routinely find ways to make a difference through their commitment to community service and social justice.

I am proud to serve as the president of Sacred Heart Academy. I love hearing from our alumnae who return to network with our current students, and share their personal and professional success stories.  I love to witness the excitement of our prospective students and families, as I know that Sacred Heart will become home for many of your daughters.

I hope that you will come to learn more about Sacred Heart Academy. If you are a current student or family, we hope you find information to enrich your SHA experience. And, if you are an alumna or just an interested viewer, we know you will be inspired by the work of Sacred Heart Academy.

Sincerely,

Kristin Lynch Graham
President
