The “blended” aspect of the Grade 12 program at Sacred Heart gave me the opportunity to learn how to work at my own pace and set my own deadlines while developing my autonomy through classes that are tailored to my interests.

Having in-person teachers at school gave me the support I needed throughout this challenging transition year between high school and university.
