The school included instruction in matters of faith and development of moral character. The first enrollment consisted of eight young women. By 1889 the academy's campus included the convent, a five story school building, an annex, and a building used for science labs. The academy outgrew its quarters on Washington Street in downtown Buffalo, New York. In 1928 the Sisters secured a property in Eggertsville, and began supervising construction of the new building. On May 11, 1930, 230 students and 14 faculty members moved into the new Sacred Heart Academy.〔"(History - Buffalo Academy of the Sacred Heart )".

Clare Music Hall, named in honor of St. Clare of Assisi, opened in September 1999. Over the summer of 2012, the academy expanded yet again. With the convent no longer in use, the school expanded to include a new state-of-the-art language and English section, which opened that fall. This area includes new technology and the school now being able to teach Mandarin Chinese, among other LOTE. In July 2013 the academy received permission to demolish a 40-year-old garage in order to build a new gymnasium. The gym will also include a dance studio. The academy anticipates having use of the new gym by the 2014-2015 basketball season. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Buffalo Academy of the Sacred Heart」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
