BUFFALO ACADEMY OF THE SACRED HEART
Annual Report 2012-2013
I was moved by the cover of this publication created by Lydia Phelps, Class of 2014, not only by the artist’s considerable talent, but also by the image itself— a majestic, mature tree, at one with nature and reflecting God’s rich autumnal diversity and splendor. A beautiful mystery of a tree is its internal archive inscribed in the disk of its trunk. A history of rings captures and records its maturation and forms a synopsis of the climate and other influences year by year. When I think about the chronicle Buffalo Academy of the Sacred Heart recorded this year, I imagine a wide, growth-filled ring, benefiting from a nurturing culture of generosity and faith, and influenced by academic curiosity, widespread creativity and hearty athleticism. Encircled in this history is the addition of nine state-ofthe-art classrooms in the new Sisters of St. Francis Academic Wing, and along with them, a marked increase in enrollment, including a freshwoman class of 145 students. A significant expansion of
opportunities for young women through scholarship and financial aid will also be recorded, along with the long-awaited groundbreaking on our gymnasium addition, which will hold the opportunity to further foster healthy life choices, teamwork, determination and discipline. Your generosity is also critical to Sacred Heart Academy’s historic narrative this year. I was awestruck by the aggregate generosity of our S.H.A. community, through your support of the Loyalty Fund, scholarships, events, reunion year gifts and gifts to our Capital Campaign. On behalf of the board of directors, administration, faculty and students, I extend our heartfelt gratitude to our benefactors who support the Academy’s mission and vision. We are so thankful that your generosity has allowed the Academy to grow.We will continue to inspire our students to develop into young scholars and leaders with integrity and a firm commitment to serving others, in the tradition of St. Francis and St. Clare.
With gratitude,
Jennifer M. Demert, Head of School

“I support Sacred Heart because the friendships, values and sense of self and community that I developed while at Sacred Heart have helped to mold me into the adult I am today. I hope that my support of Sacred Heart will allow the school to continue its mission in providing quality education for young women.” Erin Rebhan Sippel ’90

BUFFALO ACADEMY OF THE SACRED HEART
Annual Report 2012-2013
“Sacred Heart Academy has played an important part in my daughters’ lives. Their experiences at the school have been integral in their educational, social, and spiritual growth. Their lives are governed by the Franciscan values learned at Sacred Heart. They have become successful, secure, independent women and we are proud of them. I see these same qualities in their classmates. We enjoy supporting Sacred Heart financially as a way to thank the school for its role of empowering and educating women. We feel our support will be used to continue the mission of the school in educating and providing an environment where the students thrive. Our support will allow future students to enjoy a better physical facility, varied programs, and financial support for those who might need it. These are important for the future of not only the school but society as a whole as Sacred Heart graduates are grounded in the values and ethics important to leading a Christian life.” Joseph Modica, D.D.S.

“The concept of a Sacred Heart Academy Loyalty Fund was presented more than 50 years ago. At the time, the idea garnered very little support. The consensus was that only male schools were funded through annual campaigns of this nature. A small group of dedicated alumnae was keenly aware that Sacred Heart needed to establish this fund in order to survive and grow. Now, look how far we’ve come as women!”

“Mary Freeland, my late wife, loved Sacred Heart Academy. She taught at S.H.A. for 14 years, always giving her all to the school and her students. When we lost her, less than a year after she retired, I began to fully understand just how much S.H.A. meant to her and how much it had given her. It was at that time that I resolved to try to repay the Academy for that gift. In her name, I established several scholarships. I also served on the Board of Directors for several years, helping with the first capital campaign, as well as working on several accreditation visits. I strongly encourage all who have been touched by Sacred Heart to join in supporting the Academy as they follow the vision of “empowering young women through excellence in education.” Robert K. Freeland Former Board Member and husband of longtime religion teacher, Mary Freeland

“Sacred Heart has allowed me to succeed not only academically, but socially as well. After graduating, I know I have the skills necessary to tackle the real world. S.H.A.’s welcoming environment helps all of its students develop a real sense of personality that is unique to Sacred Heart girls. When I walked into school each morning, I saw countless smiling faces, and although that may not always be the case when I leave high school to enter the real world, I know I will be smiling because Sacred Heart taught me the importance of community.” Elizabeth Feeley ‘13
