Woodlands Academy of the Sacred Heart is an independent Catholic college preparatory day and boarding school. We celebrated our 150th anniversary this year. We strive to prepare young women to be academically strong, successful, caring, motivated leaders. Our diverse community of 172 includes students from the Chicago area, from across the country and from around the world.
