Academics

Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart is an independent college preparatory school committed to providing an education that is academically challenging and strong, value-oriented, and faith-centered. Education to justice is a constituent in all Sacred Heart education and encourages respect for all religions and celebrates diversity. Situated in a world struggling with materialism, poverty, injustice, intense competitive pressures, and broadening opportunities for women, Stuart stresses the values of caring, compassion, active social concern, and peaceful resolution of conflict.

As a unique institution dedicated to the education of women, Stuart has the opportunity to teach young women the skills and responsibilities of leadership; to make it possible for them to enter a greater number of fields than have traditionally been open to women; and to increase the self-esteem of each individual as a uniquely gifted person. Since these gifts are emotional and physical, as well as intellectual and spiritual, education at Stuart strives to develop the whole person.
