Rooms are furnished with a bed, desk, dresser, bookshelf, nightstand for each student. While we expect each student to keep her space neat, that doesn’t mean it needs to be boring! We encourage students to make their space unique with decorations and pictures. Rooms also come complete with a trashcan, power strip and locker for each student.
Each student has a bed, desk, dresser, bookshelf and nightstand in her space.
Bathrooms
Each room has its own bathroom, so there's no need to walk down the hall to shower in the boarding hall.

Roommates
When you move in, you'll have either one or two roommates. We'll carefully assign roomates based on interests, background and hobbies. We won't be surprised if your roommate becomes your trusted best friend!

Laundry Room
We have a laundry room just for boarding students. We schedule days for each grade during the week so everyone gets a chance to wash their clothes and linens. Weekends are open to any grade level.
Sign-up for laundry in the office and make sure to keep the line moving!
Dining Room
Did you know that Flintridge Sacred Heart originally was a hotel? Meals are served in our Dining Room, which is the same space hotel guests dined in when the hotel opened in 1931. We love getting together for dinner, so we eat together each night, Monday through Thursday. We also celebrate birthdays with monthly, themed birthday dinners. On school days, lunches are served at the Student Activities Center.
Meals are served cafeteria style

The View
We call our campus the Hill for a reason— we have an amazing view! Pictures hardly do it justice, so hopefully you'll be able to schedule a visit to see for yourself. With sweeping views of Pasadena, La Cañada and other surrounding areas, you'll also spot a range of wildlife on campus, including deer.
Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy is an all girls' Catholic, Dominican, independent, college-preparatory day and boarding high school in the hills of La Cañada Flintridge. Overlooking Pasadena, FSHA educates girls from Los Angeles, Southern California and around the world for a life of faith, integrity and truth.
