What is Home and School:
Home and School (H&S) is an organization designed to strengthen the relationship between home and school by providing our parents with a means to gather, share information, and work together on school-related projects. H&S provides funds for teachers, makes school improvements, and also purchases all the curriculum used in the classrooms. All parents/guardians are members of Home and School and are invited to attend meetings.
How We Are funded:
H&S is entirely funded by money raised at the annual Sacred Heart School Raffle and Carnival. H&S also seeks out and applies for grants to help fund some of our projects and school updates.
Parent/Guardian Requirements:
The only thing H&S requires of parents/guardians is that you work one shift at the School Carnival. We do encourage you to attend the monthly H&S meetings, as this is the best way to stay informed about what is going on in the school. If you are unable to attend, but would like to participate, please contact a H&S officer as there are many ways you can be involved.

All Saints Parade- Students dress as their favorite Saint and parade around for family and friends to see.
Catholic Schools Week- This week is dedicated to celebrating Catholic Schools. It starts with a Saturday evening Kick-Off Mass with students doing all the ministries followed by a pizza party. There will be fun activities planned throughout the week. Traditionally students from Sacred Heart and St. Joseph’s School in Oakley get join together for a day to celebrate Mass with the Bishop and have fun.
Young AmeriTowne– This financial literacy curriculum is used by the 4th and 5th graders. It teaches basic economics, government, money management, banking, employment, entrepreneurship and philanthropy. The culmination of the curriculum is a field trip to Young AmeriTowne of Kansas in the former Lenora High School building, in Lenora, KS, where students fill real-world roles and put what they have learned to practice.
Living Stations of the Cross- During Holy Week the 5th grade students (with the help of 4th graders if needed) act out the Stations of the Cross for the younger grades. Family and friends are welcome to come watch.
