SHG Sports & Events Facility

Founded in 1988 through the merger of Sacred Heart Academy and Griffin High School, our institution combines decades of educational tradition with modern academic rigor. We operate as a Catholic, Dominican college preparatory high school, welcoming students of all backgrounds to pursue excellence rooted in faith, service, and community. Our mission emphasizes academic achievement alongside moral development, guided by Vatican II principles that affirm the dignity of every individual. With a student body of approximately 500, we maintain a 95% college-bound rate while awarding over $500,000 annually in tuition assistance. Our faculty, trained in anti-racist pedagogy, fosters classrooms that promote social justice and global cultural understanding.

Students complete 14,000 service hours annually, reflecting our commitment to creating a more just society. The campus features modern facilities including a dedicated chapel and 15 specialized classrooms constructed to unify our educational vision. As part of the Springfield Dominican Sisters' legacy, we continue advancing systemic equity initiatives across all institutional practices. Our block schedule with 85-minute classes supports deep engagement, while partnerships with 120 universities ensure diverse post-secondary pathways. This enduring commitment to 'Academic Excellence in a Community of Faith' has defined our identity for over three decades.
