Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy
Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy (FSHA) is an all-girls Catholic independent school located on a stunning 42-acre campus atop the San Rafael Hills in La Cañada Flintridge. While it serves a local day student population, FSHA is distinguished by its vibrant international boarding program, which brings together students from Asia, Europe, and Latin America. This blend of local and international students creates a dynamic learning environment where global perspectives are shared daily.
The school offers a rigorous college preparatory curriculum featuring over 25 Advanced Placement (AP) and Honors courses. FSHA's philosophy is rooted in the Dominican tradition of study, prayer, community, and service. The school is dedicated to empowering young women to become confident, ethical leaders. Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are strongly emphasized, alongside a robust visual and performing arts program.
Notable for its 'Tolog' spirit and breathtaking views of the Rose Bowl and the San Gabriel Valley, the school provides a safe and supportive residential environment. The boarding program includes weekend excursions, cultural celebrations, and academic support tailored to international learners. The campus facilities include a historic main building, modern science wings, and extensive athletic fields.
