What/Who is Sacred Heart High School

Our Catholic Secondary School is located in Walkerton, Ontario, Canada. It is located in Bruce County and is a part of the Bruce-Grey Catholic District School Board. We have approximately 800 students from grades 9 - 12 with the Ontario Academic Credit year currently being phased out (by Provincial decree). There are 48 teaching staff members with an additional 24 support staff at the school. Many of our students live in a rural setting and are bused to the school.

We have a very active community, as you can tell by browsing the rest of the web pages. Check out the number of teams, clubs, support programs, special events, etc. listed on this site to get a better flavour of what we do and who we are.

If you would like to visit the school we would love to have you. We are excited about our 1998 additions/ renovations which have made our entire school revitalized. We have 17 brand new classrooms in our 2 storey addition

The students and staff of "The Heart" are what makes it a special place. Both groups are committed to providing an enjoyable and rewarding educational community. The staff are well skilled, knowledgeable and care about the students! We have hosted Provincial Youth For Life Conferences, OFSAA Championships in Basketball and Rugby and have attained many Provincial honours. Our students are deeply involved in Social Justice, with very active clubs like such as'Peace and Ecology', 'Youth For Life', OSAID (Ontario Students Agains Impaired Driving), and we have an increasing number of students participating in support programs to countries like the Dominican Republic and Peru.
