What We Believe

At Flintridge Sacred Heart, we believe a girl must first know herself before she can serve God and others joyfully.

We light the path for each student to pursue truth in her studies and in life, as she becomes a courageously curious thinker and the best version of herself.

Because when we do, we unlock her limitless potential to positively impact the world.

The Flintridge Sacred Heart Difference

Flintridge Sacred Heart elevates the education of young women by cultivating positive relationships with one’s self, others and God.

  • Be Courageous & embrace your passions Be Courageous & embrace your passions
    Our community’s deeply rooted commitment to “Veritas,” the Latin word for “truth,” creates freedom for each girl to examine who she is, to take risks, and to be courageous.
