Community

Building community is at the core of our Sacred Heart ethos—everyone in the ISSH community is valued and contributes to what makes our school special. That doesn't change when students graduate. Our strong network of nearly 12,000 alumni remain connected to ISSH, coming back for visits during the school year and joining us for alumni gatherings around the world, whether a small meetup in New York or San Francisco or our annual reunion event, Come Home to the Heart. They give presentations about their inspiring careers and speak on panels about transitioning to university, serving as mentors and role models to current students. Our parent community is incredibly involved in the school as well, from parent groups such as our dedicated Parent Association and Parent Advisory Board to the valued volunteers who visit kindergarten classes to read storybooks or prepare their cultural cuisine for our Family Festival. All members of our community are Symbas—once a Symba, always a Symba!
