Why Sacred Heart?

It was once said that children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future, and at The Sacred Heart School of Montreal, we do not take this for granted.

Since 1861, we have been dedicated to graduating confident and brave women, full of potential and prepared to take on the world. The school is committed to developing young women of intellect, conviction, compassion and with a sense of justice for all; leading to the MEQ Secondary Leaving Diploma.

Community Voices: How Our School Makes a Lasting Impact

Aran Waldbrook, Fine Arts Department Head at best private girls high school in Montreal

When I moved to Montreal from a small town, I was shocked that so many schools offered only asphalt for children to play on. Sacred Heart is a green oasis in the middle of downtown and I'm so lucky to have a beautiful view of the campus out of my office window!

Melanie Dirks and Paul Kruszewski at Sacred Heart's Raise the Roof fundraiser

We have been so impressed by all the Sacred Heart students we have had the pleasure to meet.  They are kind, committed, and hardworking, and it's been a joy to watch them grow up and move on to CEGEP and university.

Testimonial Patricia Danielidis

I often share memories from my time as a student here to my friends from McGill and, every time, someone says “I wish I could’ve gone there”. We have such a special school, with unique traditions and caring and dedicated staff and faculty, being a student here was a dream for me.
