Newton Country Day School

Courage and Confidence. These words inspired Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat through the challenges she faced in realizing her groundbreaking vision: to establish a global network of schools to educate girls who would transform the world. Founded in France in 1800, Schools of the Sacred Heart now flourish in 44 countries and over 20 locations in the United States. Sacred Heart Schools share a common philosophy of providing an education serious in its principles, strong in its studies, and rich in a spirit of life and love.

Here at Newton Country Day, we focus on the same core values reflected in Sacred Heart Schools worldwide. Highly motivated students and faculty of all faiths create a vibrant and welcoming community distinguished by vigorous intellect, thoughtful compassion, and joyful traditions. Through the international Network of Sacred Heart Schools, girls participate in service opportunities and academic exchanges across the world. Young woman graduate from Sacred Heart Schools eager to make a difference in society.
