Why Choose Sacred Heart

Sacred Heart High School has a long and a proud tradition spanning over eight decades and having produced 11,000 graduates. The Sacred Heart family has great pride in its school and a great love of our community.

Many of our graduates are accomplished professionals who give so much back to their school by sharing their experiences and their expertise with our students. A number of our alumni are also involved as members of Sacred Heart’s Board of Directors or as class agents. Their guidance and their support allow us to continue meeting the needs of the families we serve in the Greater Waterbury community.
