The possibilities are endless at Sacred Heart School, where we give students the map, moral compass and knowledge to travel life's journey.

Sacred Heart gives students the opportunity to choose their own accomplishments and create their own success stories. Along the way, we nurture and embolden them as they grow mentally, physically and spiritually.

A private Catholic education is a significant financial investment, but with the opportunities Sacred Heart provides and the benefits your child will experience, the experience is invaluable.

Every student who attends Sacred Heart School receives tuition assistance even if they have never applied. This is because we keep our tuition rates substantially lower than the actual cost of education thanks to our parish subsidies, fundraisers, family commitment and endowed scholarship and tuition assistance funds.

We also offer Family Commitment, which helps families earn credit toward their tuition by volunteering and taking part in all-school fundraisers. For more information, visit the Family Commitment page.

Yes. Because a family's financial circumstances can change, we require families to reapply for assistance if they plan on needing it every year. You can do so using our FACTS portal.

Depending on the individual circumstances, in cases of divorce or separation both parents or legal guardians may be required to fully complete the financial aid process, together or separately. Contact Carl Adolphson to discuss your specific situation at 218-773-0877 or [email protected]

FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment must verify your expenses and household income to assist the school in making an informed decision about the amount of aid needed of each family. By using a third party, your financial information remains secure, private and undisclosed to the school.

Once you have completed the online application, you'll be able to log onto online.factsmgt.com to check the status of your application.

Please allow two weeks for FACTS to process your application. The school will send award notification letters in June. If you have questions about FACTS awards, have not heard about your tuition assistance amount or have general questions about the process, contact Carl Adolphson at 218-773-1579.
