Roots That Give Us Wings 2024

Roots That Give Us Wings 2024
  • Faculty

Each year, the Society of the Sacred Heart invites educators to immerse themselves in the history of Sacred Heart education with colleagues from across the Network.

This orientation, Roots that Give Us Wings, invites educators to go back to where the United States and Canada Province began with St. Rose Philippine Duchesne in 1818 to learn about the heritage of our Founding Mothers and the history, traditions, and spirituality of Sacred Heart education.

They walk the grounds of the Academy of the Sacred Heart and Villa Duchesne, the first Sacred Heart schools in North America, reaffirm their commitment to further our shared mission as Sacred Heart educators, and engage in presentations from current Religious of the Sacred Heart.

Just as Philippine launched Sacred Heart Education in the United States and Canada, Roots that Gives Us Wings anchors and nourishes the work that all of our educators are doing.
