Washington DC- Day 4 17,000 steps on Day 4 brought Sacred Heart to the end of an amazing trip to Washington, D.C. Today, we visited Arlington National Cemetery, where our students participated in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. We also visited the Marine Corps Memorial, the Pentagon 9/11 Memorial, and Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington! Awesome trip! Now we are ready to come home.

Washington DC Trip – Day 3 After traveling 196 miles on Day 3, the traveling Cardinals journeyed into Pennsylvania for an extensive tour of the Battle of Gettysburg with the best tour guide around. They then traveled to Baltimore to visit Fort McHenry, where they participated in an American flag ceremony, before ending the day cheering on the Baltimore Orioles at the ballpark. God is good!

From the back-to-back House Cup Champs, John Paul II, to the beautiful day God provided for Field Day, there has been great energy all week. Father Joseph, we see you cheering on our students. So blessed on the corner of Johnson Drive and Monticello.

"Sacred Heart has helped us grow in our confidence, education, and most importantly, our faith in Jesus Christ. We have learned that our future holds endless possibilities, and that should never scare us because God has a plan for our lives." - Charlotte Zillner, Class of 2026 Valedictorian

Congratulations, Class of 2026!

Happy Mother's Day! Our uh-mazing Middle School Math Resource Teacher/Technology Elective Teacher Mrs. Heinking had a very special guest speaker for her technology class. #ForeverCardinal Alex Heinking came in to talk to his mom's class about some of the concepts they have covered in class about digital citizenship. Since Alex is a programmer, he was able to go into the why. Why longer, more complex passwords are important, how to spot phishing texts and emails, how to spot a fake domain, and who actually has access to your online information. He emphasized the importance of keeping social media profiles private. The students walked away with how to be more responsible with their digital footprint.

Happy Birthday, Father Joseph! It is his birthday, but he gave us the gift.

If you were at the 8:05 a.m. Mass today, you were likely fighting back tears at the beauty of Father Joseph’s homily. For the first time, the May Crowning included both our second-grade First Communicants and our eighth-grade Confirmandi.

Father has a gift for speaking to the hearts and life circumstances of our children. There is an undeniable holiness about him that captures our attention, and we hear the voice of Jesus in our chaplain, Father Joseph Asante.

In the abundance of appreciation our staff has received this week from the loving Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic School community, let us also build a mountain of prayers in thanksgiving for this incredible teacher, Father Joseph.

As we celebrate Ms. Kellan as she prepares to head off to medical school this fall—she will be missed dearly—we are also excited to welcome our new health room specialist, Ms. Shelly Jarvis!


Ms. Jarvis is a Prince of Peace parishioner, as well as a loving mother and grandmother. She brings with her a wealth of experience in both the healthcare field and in living out her faith. She is a graduate of North Central Kansas Technical College in Concordia, KS, and is a licensed practical nurse with multi-state licensure. She is also IV- and CPR-certified.


From Ms. Jarvis:
"I've been blessed with a variety of nursing experiences over the years, including long-term care, home health, and hospice. For the past two years, I've been serving children with disabilities and their families in a home setting. It's exciting to begin this new adventure at Sacred Heart School! I look forward to getting acquainted with everyone and serving our community. My hope and prayer is that I serve well each day, bringing the light and love of Christ to all He places on my path. I can't promise perfection, but I do promise to put my Catholic faith and my heart into my work and to always do my best."


Please join us in giving Ms. Jarvis a warm welcome! And be sure to thank Ms. Kellan for all she has done this past year, and wish her every success as she begins medical school this fall!

"Love the children first, and then teach them." — Saint Mother Theodore Guerin

This quote perfectly explains the smile on this teacher's face. Mrs. Jones (pictured here with a GINORMOUS smile) loves her students with her whole being. As gentle as her heart is, she is equally super competitive.

During March Madness, Sacred Heart was also in the middle of state testing. Mrs. Jones created the first annual March Madness of Random Things. Every student filled out a bracket to predict what middle schoolers would choose as the best "thing."

Taylor Swift vs. Hoodie Sweatshirts
Chicken Nuggets vs. Xbox

So, what won the BIG DANCE of random things? Christmas! 🎄🎄🎄 Sixth graders Will and Sofie took home the grand prize for having the best brackets in middle school.

We can't wait for next year's tournament!
