Age Requirements
According to the laws of Tennessee and Diocesan Policy #1030, a child must be five (5) years old by September 30 of the year entering Kindergarten; a child must be six (6) years old by September 30 of the year entering grade one, unless transferring from an accredited school in another state whose age requirements differ.

Class Composition
Due to large enrollment and the number of requests received in the past, parent requests for classroom/homeroom placement are not accepted. If a child has a specific educational or emotional need of which his/her current teacher is not aware, parents may present the needs, in writing, to the assistant principal, but no requests or non-requests regarding specific teachers will be taken.

In order to achieve a good balance and to facilitate service for all children, the number of "special needs" children in a grade and/or room will be monitored and limited. “Special needs” include, but are not limited to, learning disabilities, emotional/behavior disorders, attention deficit disorder, English Language Learning (ELL), and gifted/talented.
NOTE: SHCS is not equipped to serve students with most physical handicaps.

Class Size
Sacred Heart Cathedral School will comply with State of Tennessee regulations regarding class size:

  • Kindergarten - Grade 3 : 25 students maximum
  • Grade 4 : 26 students maximum
  • Grades 5-6 : 28 students maximum
  • Grades 7-8 : 30 students maximum

Immunization Requirements
All students must show proof of required vaccinations by providing a State of Tennessee Immunization Record. This form is available as part of the admissions packet and at pediatricians' offices and local health departments.
