Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy is a Catholic, Dominican, independent, college-preparatory, day and boarding school, educating young women for a life of faith, integrity, and truth.

We learn in a stunning environment: Spread over 42 acres in the San Gabriel Mountains, the campus occupies the site of the former Flintridge Hotel. Students enjoy breathtaking views, which provides a unique location for reflection.

We challenge ourselves academically: Students are taught critical-thinking skills that apply just as easily to a catapult experiment on the field as to an analysis of "The Catcher in the Rye."

We make sure girls take center stage, while drawing upon all that we know about how they grow and learn. It's the combination of the community, culture and climate girls' schools offer that makes for such a transformative experience.
