In 1931, Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy was founded by the Dominican Sisters of Mission San Jose. As an all girls boarding and day school for grades 9-12, FSHA’s mission is to educate young women in a holistic college preparatory program, where their unique gifts are viewed as essential for our world, where they are nurtured by a vibrant community of faith and where truth and love are the highest values. At its inception, FSHA had 200 students, but in the seventy-six years that it has been established, the Academy has grown to have over 400 students each academic year.
