ADMISSIONS POLICY
Roman Catholic Schools in the Archdiocese of New
York base their educational purpose and all their
activities on the Christian teaching of the
essential equality of all persons as rooted in God’s
love.
Thus, with discrimination so repugnant to their
nature and mission, Catholic Schools in this
Archdiocese do not discriminate on the basis of
race, color, national and ethnic origin, and gender
in administration of educational policies, admission
policies, scholarship and loan programs, and
athletic and other school administered programs.
This policy is subscribed to by all Catholic
elementary and secondary schools in the Archdiocese
of New York whether owned or operated by the
Archdiocese, the parishes of the Archdiocese or
religious communities with the Archdiocese.
The process for admission to Sacred Heart of Jesus
School is: parents must complete the school
application form and provide all required documents.
Following an interview and evaluation of the
materials, the parent will be notified about the
status of the child.
Sacred Heart of Jesus School gives preference in
admission first, to siblings of currently enrolled
students; second, to Catholic students whose parents
are active members of the parish; third, to Catholic
students whose parents are active in another
Catholic parish; fourth, to non-Catholic students.
