General guidelines for student deportment are presented to the students in a variety of formats including students assemblies, newsletters, announcements, and classroom discussions. Regular review and reinforcement take place throughout the year. At Sacred Heart we have undertaken reviews of our mathematics and language arts programs in order to help meet the needs of our students. As part of our resolve to enhance technological education and computer literacy there has been ongoing staff in-service, the acquisition of new equipment and increased emphasis on computer skills. To help meet the needs of individual students, teachers modify programs within the regular class, consult with other staff and meet with resource personnel assigned to the school.
Special programs support students with particular needs.
A full range of extra and co-curricular activities is available to the students. The school strongly endorses field trips and major excursions. Outdoor education programs including skating, cross country skiing, downhill skiing, nature studies and ecology lessons provide new, enriching experiences for the students. For those with artistic inclinations there are craft classes, musicals, drama and choirs. The chess and W5H teams provide excellent opportunities for students talented in these areas to develop and tone their interests.
