Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy

http://www.fsha.org

For more than 79 years, the Dominican Sisters and their colleagues have nurtured the dreams, intellectual curiosity and goals of young women in a quiet yet powerful way. Our graduates walk securely and confidently in the world and make their indelible mark and our unique school community continues to bring together students from diverse nations, cultures and backgrounds; FSHA graduates have come from or currently live in more than 40 countries and on six continents. Our students are thoughtfully and enthusiastically involved in the breadth of their high school education. They become scholars, athletes, writers, artists, thespians and leaders within their communities. We urge our students to take risks, try new things and accept challenges within the safety of our school community. As a result, they learn to succeed or fail with dignity and grace, ultimately discovering their special talents and unique gifts. Our dedicated staff and faculty recognize the inner beauty and hidden potential of the teenage girl. Over the course of her high school years, she is helped to realize the fullness of who she is meant to be in a beautiful location that truly nurtures her development. The supportive interaction within the school community combined with FSHA’s challenging curriculum creates what can only be characterized as “the Flintridge experience.”
