School Profile
Sacred Heart Parish School, located in the rural community of San Benito County, opened under the direction of four Sisters of Charity on August 8, 1891, as a boarding and day school. The tradition of the Sisters serving the needs of the rural community was carried on until 1930 when the Sisters of Saint Mary of Namur took over management. You may visit the Sisters of Saint Mary of Namur Web site at http://www.ssmnwestern.com . The last religious community to direct the school was the Dominican Sisters of Adrian. The school has been administered by lay leadership since 1992.
The faces, enrollment and building structure have changed in the last 118 years, but not the commitment of the school to the education of children in our Catholic tradition.
