In keeping with the Goals of the Sacred Heart to promote community-building and personal growth, the advisory program provides a supportive group for each girl during her upper school years.  When a student enters the Upper School, she is assigned to a faculty advisor and an advisory group of ten to fourteen of her grade-level peers who remain together for four years.    The advisory program affirms that caring for each student-her faith, and her intellectual, emotional, and physical development-is essential to a Sacred Heart education. 

Faculty Advisors will

• Sit with their advisees at Morning Assembly and take attendance
• Meet with the group each month at the scheduled Advisory meal
• Meet informally with individual students as often as possible
• Establish and maintain positive contact with each advisee's parents
• Review progress reports and report cards and follow-up
• Attend class meetings, functions and retreats with advisees
• Work with the Head, School Counselor, Academic Dean and Dean of Students to identify and 
• address individual, academic, or personal concerns
