Thanksgiving for Tomorrow
Rally to Save Our School
Sacred Heart Area School is facing a defining moment. To keep Catholic education alive in our Area Catholic Community, we must raise $280,000 by Thanksgiving 2025.
Our goal is simple but powerful:
👉 If each parishioner household gives just $10 a month - for 1, 3, or 5 years - we will have the steady foundation we need to keep Sacred Heart Area School open for future generations.
Why $10?
$10 a month is just 33¢ a day.
If our ~3,000 parishioner households participate, we can sustain Catholic education for years to come.
Together, small sacrifices make a life-changing impact.
Every dollar matters. Every pledge counts. Your $10 each month is more than a donation - it’s a vote of faith in the future of Catholic education in our community.
"Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion,
for God loves a cheerful giver."(2 Corinthians 9:7)
Pledge just $10 each month for 1, 3, or 5 years to help save our school and ensure Catholic education for the next generation.

Alumni Family Spotlight: The Brichacek Family
“Sacred Heart Area School shaped not only our daughters’ minds but also their hearts, instilling faith, knowledge, and values that will last a lifetime. We are forever grateful for the strong foundation SHAS gave Abby and Lily, which continues to guide them in all they do.
As a family, we have been blessed to serve on the Advisory Council, Spring Blast Committee, and Fish Fry Committee, and it has been an honor to contribute to the life of the school. This spirit of service has extended to Abby and Lily as well, who give back as homework helpers and teacher assistants… living out the values of service and stewardship they first learned here.”
Alumni Family Spotlight: The Hanson Family
We are proud to spotlight the Hanson Family, whose commitment to Sacred Heart Area School has left a lasting impact. Though not Catholic themselves, Mr. and Mrs. Hanson chose SHAS for their daughter, Mayzelle, because of the strong academics, welcoming community, and faith-filled environment the school provides. Their choice reflects the inclusive spirit of Sacred Heart, where all families seeking Christ-centered education are embraced.
Mayzelle, now an alumna, was known during her time at SHAS as a peer mentor, exceptional student, talented actress, and avid chocolate connoisseur. Her enthusiasm and leadership inspired both classmates and teachers alike.
The Hansons continue to strengthen our school community through service at the Lenten Fish fry and Annual Spring Blast. Their faith, dedication, and generosity embody the spirit of Sacred Heart, and we are deeply grateful for their ongoing support.
Mission
At Sacred Heart Area School, we are dedicated to nurturing the whole person by integrating our Catholic faith in Christ into every aspect of our students' lives. We strive to foster both spiritual and academic growth within a compassionate and supportive environment. Through our commitment to love and respect for all, we aim to inspire each student to achieve their fullest potential and to live out the Gospel values in service to others.
Philosophy
Sacred Heart Area School believes that education is a journey of faith, knowledge, and service. Rooted in the teachings of the Catholic Church, we are committed to developing each student's spiritual, intellectual, and emotional growth. We believe that a strong faith foundation enhances academic excellence and that every child is a unique gift from God, deserving of respect, encouragement, and the opportunity to succeed.
Our philosophy is guided by the following principles:
Faith Integration: We infuse Catholic values and teachings into our curriculum, helping students to deepen their relationship with Christ and to understand their role in the broader Church community.
Academic Excellence: We provide a rigorous and dynamic academic program that challenges students to think critically, solve problems, and pursue lifelong learning.
Character Development: We emphasize the importance of moral integrity, responsibility, and service, encouraging students to lead lives of compassion and justice.
Community and Respect: We create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere where every student, family, and staff member is valued and treated with dignity and kindness.
Service to Others: We encourage students to live out their faith through acts of service, understanding that their education calls them to be leaders and contributors to a just and caring world.
By living out these principles, Sacred Heart Area School seeks to prepare our students not only for academic success but for a life of faith-filled service and leadership in the world.
