Core Values
Community
The Community of Mount Sacred Heart generates a spirit of belonging. It welcomes all and invites all community members to share their gifts so that Christ may be known and His love may be experienced, expressed, and shared.
Compassion
Compassion is an attitude of the heart that accepts everyone with unconditional love and empathy. It generates a willingness to be near others in their brokenness and present to them in challenges. It moves us to take risks to ensure human dignity.
Integrity
Integrity is seen in the authenticity of our day-to-day living. We strive to be who we say we are, matching our actions to our Christian values.
Service
Service is an extension of our compassion, understanding that all we have received is not ours alone. Service reaches out to bring about wholeness in others.
Philosophy
Mount Sacred Heart believes that parents are the primary educators of their children. We believe the cooperative partnership between parents and the school fosters a communal vision that integrates Catholic educational excellence and the Gospel values of community, compassion, integrity, and service.
The belief in the dignity of each person calls us to cultivate the minds and hearts of students to develop spiritual, intellectual, personal, social, and physical endowments through an enriched program that fosters leadership and service. We believe the message of God’s love and tenderness for humanity empowers students to be compassionate learners within a global society.
Our History
Sr. Rose of Lima Gonzalez is credited for her instrumental role in the early establishment of the first little school which began in the Sisters' Convent. She, and the Sisters that accompanied her, are acclaimed for laying the foundation for the School's growth and reputation of distinguished excellence.

Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
O most holy Heart of Jesus, foundation of every blessing, I adore You, I love You, and with lively sorrow for my sins, I offer You this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to Your will. Grant, good Jesus, that I may live in You and for You. Protect me in the midst of danger, comfort me in my afflictions; give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, Your blessings on all that I do, and the grace of the holy death. Amen.
