The purpose of the Advisory Program is to provide further opportunities for middle school students to grow in self-awareness in light of the Goals and Criteria of Sacred Heart Schools. This program provides a structure for one-on-one meetings between a student and a faculty advisor as well as small group advisory meetings. Approximately 8-12 students are assigned to each group. The group promotes a variety of activities including organization, study skills and appreciation of self and others in the community.
The advisor fosters courage and confidence, nurtures, advocates, guides, and facilitates communication between the student, other educators, and parents. The students develop a connection within their advisory group, build academic and interpersonal skills, and come to a greater understanding of their gifts and personal challenges.
