Blazek Enrichment Awards

In June 2002, Sarah Kirwan Blazek officially ended a 30-year career as a Hardey 1st grade teacher.  An anonymous donor endowed a faculty/staff enrichment program in her honor – The Sarah Kirwan Blazek Fund - to recognize an outstanding teacher who maintained a full life of outside interests beyond the classroom. Through Sarah's authorship of several award-winning children books and extensive traveling, she enriched her life and enhanced her teaching for the benefit of hundreds of Hardey graduates.

The annual Blazek Enrichment Award supports faculty-staff personal enrichment travel opportunities.  Applicants complete a 500-word essay on how their travel experience would enhance their living the Goals and Criteria of Sacred Heart Schools.

Chaddick Foundation Professional Development Fund

In June 2005, the Harry F. Chaddick & Elaine Chaddick Foundation endowed the Chaddick Foundation Faculty Professional Development Fund to support teachers' efforts to further their education through the pursuit of advanced degrees or by participating in specified educational programs.

The Foundation's five-year $100,000 pledge will greatly enhance our ongoing effort to provide enriching opportunities for the faculty of Sacred Heart Schools that will ultimately benefit our students.
