Guidelines
This scholarship is named in honor of Kathleen McCabe, who served as
principal of Sacred Heart School from its opening day in 2002 through 2009.
It is the sincere desire of the Home and School Association that the
extraordinary contributions of Kathleen McCabe to Sacred Heart School always
be remembered. Her radiant examples of leadership, dedication, compassion,
and unwavering religious beliefs continue to inspire the Sacred Heart School
Community.
Kathleen McCabe is an avid supporter of parochial education. She vividly
demonstrated her commitment to the mission of Sacred Heart School being a
faith-centered community dedicated to providing a nurturing environment in
which every child can develop spiritually, emotionally, intellectually,
socially, and physically.
This scholarship program was conceived to provide assistance to children who
may be unable to experience the exceptional educational opportunities
available at Sacred Heart School due to financial circumstances. The
original funding for this scholarship, which will be utilized through the
2011/2012 school year, was donated by the parents of Sacred Heart School in
appreciation of the excellence and dedication bestowed upon the students,
faculty and families of Sacred Heart by Kathleen McCabe. The Sacred Heart
School Home and School Association will assume the continued funding of this
scholarship grant from that point forward by contributing $500 annually to
this program.
In accordance with the desires of Kathleen McCabe guidelines for funding
under this scholarship program are as follows:
1. Recipient of scholarship must be a practicing Sacred Heart parishioner.
2. Recipient of scholarship must be a student returning to Sacred Heart
School.
3. Recipients’ family must be a current, paid and participating member
of the Sacred Heart School Home and School Association.
Anyone desiring consideration for funding under this scholarship program are
urged to contact the Pastor to discuss their circumstances and desire for
assistance under this scholarship opportunity.
The Pastor, along with guidance from the Principal, will confirm the
eligibility of candidates. The scholarship recipient will be selected by
random drawing of all eligible candidates. This scholarship will award $500
to its recipient, which will be applied directly towards the annual tuition
total to defray tuition costs and/or registration fees. The public
disclosure of the scholarship award recipient will be at the discretion of
the recipient.
Any questions pertaining to this scholarship program should be directed to
the Home and School Association Board.
