8th Grade Graduation at Sacred Heart

 

Generations of 8th grades posed for graduation pictures on these old steps. Sacred Heart grew with the baby boom years after the war. In 1952 the church added a chapel and four more class rooms. In 1956 a new church was needed and the Robin Hotel was purchased and moved across the street to make way for the new building. By 1957 there wasn’t enough room to enroll all the parish children in the Sacred Heart School and there were another 400 in the Sunday School.
