Restoring Education, Transforming Culture

 

Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust in You.

Valley of the Sacred Heart Academy provides a rich Catholic environment that is rooted in the principles of Montessori and Classical education – while igniting a child’s love for God. Both full- and part-time branches of the academy cooperate to meet the spiritual and educational needs of children and their families.

  • At the heart of the academy is Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, a Montessori approach to the spiritual formation of children.

  • Dedicated to the spiritual, intellectual, social, physical, and emotional well-being of children ages 3-18.  

  • Rigorous, faithful to the mission of the Church, and reasonably priced for families, we assist each child to reach his potential as a child of God.
