If I went to a Sacred Heart high school in another state (part of the same system) is my DD considered a legacy for the one here? What's the reputation of Sacred Heart? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

hey, me too! I think the answer is that yes, she would be considered a legacy. I think the reputation is quite good- not quite at the Dalton level, but up there. my neighbor's girls went there and they loved it. how old is your dd? alas, we've moved to the burbs and won't be sending our girl there- which bums me out. we used to live just a couple blocks away.

OP: Well, first off I was only asking about legacy status. But since you're the expert on all things Sacred Heart, tell me more about this, about how much the actual education varies. [ Reply | More

No it isn't. Sacred Heart is an order of schools and they are related. Your example is like saying a horrible Catholic school is like CSH. [ Reply | More

No jesuit colleges are an order of schools, they are not related or forced to achieve the same level of academics. Obviously you want your dc to go, so send her, but it doesn't change the truth [ Reply | More
