Trojan Scholars, which has been in existence at Sacred Heart since 1979, is an academic honorary society for high school students. The name of the program is derived from the school mascot, the "Trojan." The primary purpose of this program is to encourage and motivate students to excel academically. In order to be a "Trojan Scholar" a student must maintain a 3.7 average for the final grades of the last two terms (previous spring and fall semesters). An evening program is held to honor these students and their parents. Students are presented with a certificate, a specially designed T-shirt and the following:
●Freshmen – a customized lapel pin embossed with school crest ●Sophomores – an engraved, gold key ring ●Juniors - a patch for his/her jacket or sweater ●Seniors – an engraved pen set Students are allowed a "free day" from school - any day of their choosing as an incentive for their dedication and hard work to their academics. Parents must call a day in advance to notify the school that the student is taking his/her Trojan Scholar Day.
