Goals and Criteria
Essential Principles and Values
The Goals and Criteria outlines the essential principles and values of Sacred Heart education. From the very beginning, it has served as a covenant among Sacred Heart educators and the Society of the Sacred Heart on behalf of young people for the sake of building a world reflective of the attitudes of Christ's Heart. It remains the pivotal document for students, families and educators of the Sacred Heart. This articulation of mission continues to play a fundamental role in supporting mission integrity by expressing the timeless principles at the heart of Sacred Heart education. Schools of the Sacred Heart educate to:
Goals
Goal I: a personal and active faith in God
Goal II: a deep respect for intellectual values
Goal III: a social awareness which impels to action
Goal IV: the building of community as a Christian value
Goal V: personal growth in an atmosphere of wise freedom.
