Sneak Peek: Progress Continues on the Clarence T.C. Ching Junior Innovation Center

Excitement continues to grow as construction progresses on the future Clarence T.C. Ching Junior Innovation Center at Sacred Hearts Academy.

Recently, the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts joined Academy leadership for a site visit to see firsthand how the project is advancing. Their visit offered a meaningful opportunity to witness the transformation of a vision rooted in faith, innovation, and learning into a space that will serve generations of young learners.

Made possible through the generous support of the Clarence T.C. Ching Foundation, the Junior Innovation Center will provide a dedicated makerspace for students beginning at age 2. The center will foster curiosity, creativity, problem-solving, and hands-on STEM experiences that empower students to become confident learners and future innovators.

We are grateful for the continued partnership and support that are helping make this exciting project a reality and look forward to sharing more updates as progress continues.

Happy Birthday and Safe Travels, Fr. Jeremy Sabugo, ss.cc.

Sacred Hearts Academy extends warm birthday blessings to Fr. Jeremy Sabugo, ss.cc., who celebrated his birthday over the weekend.

We are deeply grateful for his faithful ministry as our school chaplain and for the many ways he helps nurture the mission and vision of the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts within our community. His presence, guidance, and spiritual leadership continue to inspire our students, faculty, staff, and families.

As he continues his travels abroad, we lift him in prayer:

"Loving God, we thank You for the gift of Fr. Jeremy's life and vocation. Bless him on his birthday and throughout the year ahead. Grant him good health, joy, wisdom, and peace. Keep him safe in his travels, protect him wherever he may go, and bring him safely back to our Sacred Hearts Academy 'ohana. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen."

We wish Fr. Jeremy a blessed birthday, safe travels, and God's abundant grace. We look forward to welcoming him back to campus later this month. 🤍💛🙏✈️

Why an All-Girls Education Matters

Girls' schools are uniquely positioned to support the ways girls learn and grow. Studies have shown that students attending all-girls schools often report strong levels of support from both their classmates and teachers, helping them build confidence and achieve their full potential.

At Sacred Hearts Academy, this philosophy shapes everything we do. Our curriculum and learning environment are intentionally designed to encourage academic excellence, leadership development, and personal growth. By fostering confidence and resilience, we empower students to flourish not only during their time at the Academy but throughout their lives.

From preschool through grade 12, Sacred Hearts Academy offers programs tailored specifically for girls and young women at every stage of their educational journey.

We invite families to learn more about our vibrant school community. Contact our Admission Team or complete an inquiry form today to discover what makes a Sacred Hearts Academy education so special. 🤍💛
