Sacred Heart Academy School Newspapers
(on file with the Alumni Association as of November 2009)

This list represents school newspapers collected by the Alumni Association as of November 2009. Most are mimeographed copies and some are the purple print that is badly faded and nearly unreadable.  The four years from 1955 through 1958 were professionally printed by John P. Murphy ’24 at Petroleum Publishers or at Enterprise Printers (each story has been told). The list indicates that some editions are missing and there are possibly other years that newspapers were produced but the Association is unaware of. If anyone has information to supplement what is listed below please email the Association at alumni@sha.net. Click on the year to see if the issues are currently available.
