Kindergarten and Preschool Registration
We are accepting registrations for new students for the 2022–2023 school year. If you have younger children who you are planning to send to SHES next year, you should start the process now. Kindergarten and Preschool currently have openings for next year, but wait lists normally begin after the holidays. Registration forms are available at the school office or on our website. A tour can be scheduled upon request.
Family Christmas Ornaments
As we prepare for the Advent season, we also prepare our Family Christmas Trees at Sacred Heart School. There will be trees on each floor of the school decorated with one ornament from each school family.
If you are new to SHES or haven’t yet sent an ornament to represent your family, please send us one. The ornament can be bought or homemade. Please put your family’s name on the ornament, along with the year your child(ren) were first enrolled at Sacred Heart School.
We decorate with the ornaments from year to year to remember all who have been part of the school family over time. The children love to put their family ornament on the tree and proudly show it to their friends.
Christmas Band Concert
The Sacred Heart Elementary Band will be performing a Christmas Concert, in person, in the auditorium on Wednesday, December 14 at 7:00 p.m. We hope that the families of the Band members will come to support their budding musicians and get in the holiday spirit. Masks are required for all audience members.
Cancellations and Delays
Sacred Heart follows the Pittsburgh Public Schools decision for delays and cancellations. Check WTAE, WPXI, and KDKA for listings. An Option C alert will also be sent by phone and email. School arrival time should be 10:00 a.m. for a two-hour delay.

After School Program Updates
Our After School Program has updated their brochure and phone number. You can access the new brochure on the
website, or by opening the attached document.
Family Directory
You should have received your electronic PDF copy of the 2021-2022 Family Directory through Option. We are offering the directory ONLY in the PDF version this year. You are welcome to print out a hard copy for yourself. The email option helps us to cut down on costs and eliminate the paper on our desks and in your homes.
