Why Sacred Heart?
It was once said that children are the world’s most valuable resource and its best hope for the future — and at The Sacred Heart School of Montreal, we hold this truth at the heart of everything we do.
Founded in 1861, we are Montreal’s oldest and only English Catholic girls’ school, dedicated to graduating confident, courageous young women prepared to shape the world. Rooted in a tradition of excellence, we nurture women of intellect, conviction, compassion, and a deep commitment to justice, leading to the MEQ Secondary Leaving Diploma.
At Sacred Heart, each student is known and valued for who she is. We celebrate her uniqueness, guiding her to discover her strengths, pursue her passions, and confidently chart the path that is uniquely her own.
Her future starts with Sacred Heart
