From second grade teacher Caroline Waldradt:
"One of our Sacred Heart goals is a deep respect for intellectual values. We want our students to recognize that learning can take place not only inside but outside the classroom. Second graders enjoyed the opportunity to learn about the trees at Princeton Academy. They made tree rubbings of the bark and learned to recognize 8 of the different species on our property."

March Madness came to Princeton Academy just before spring break! Lower and middle school prayer buddies participated in a variety of competitions together, including floor hockey, basketball, playground activities, and reading. Throughout the school year, the boys spend time together doing community service, attending prayer services and liturgies, or just having fun.

What do you get when you add boys and books together? A love of reading. Thanks to PAPA for pulling together a wonderful spring book fair. The Book Fair was well attended and supported.
