A love for Jesus and learning
Experienced faculty members foster a love of learning in their classrooms and lead students to strive for their personal best, setting high expectations and promoting a growth mindset.
Most importantly, recognizing that Jesus is the reason for our school, the curriculum at Sacred Heart Cathedral School integrates love of Christ and others into every subject area.
Building a strong foundation
In a classical framework, this early stage of learning is called the grammar stage and focuses on building students’ foundational understanding of the structure of the created world. Our curriculum features the curriculum of Memoria Press, Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, and the use of learning centers.
In addition to the core curriculum, our lower elementary students are formed holistically through physical education, music, art, library and French classes, as well as instruction in the use of technology to hone academic skills.

Do you offer before and after school care?
Students may be dropped off in the morning as early as 7:00am (no additional fee) and will meet in the gym until 7:30am when they will go to their homeroom classroom.
The Extended Care Program is available until 5:30pm.
How do parents get involved?
Volunteers are an integral part of the success of our school, both through events and activities. The Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee requires that all volunteers, chaperones and fieldtrip drivers complete a Level-2 background clearance. The cost is $65 and the packets are available in the school office.
Is bus service available?
We do not own nor operate any sort of transportation service. You may request a zip code list mid-summer to check on creating a carpool.
Does Sacred Heart have a hot lunch program?
While the majority of students bring their own lunch, families may order lunch in advance through the online lunch program Campus Cuisine.
