Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy Celebrates the Class of 2026
With gratitude, pride, and joyful hearts, Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy (FSHA) celebrated the graduation of the Class of 2026, honoring 107 remarkable young women as they prepared to begin the next chapter of their educational journeys.
Throughout their years at FSHA, these graduates distinguished themselves through academic excellence, leadership, service, artistic achievement, athletic success, and an unwavering commitment to living the school’s Dominican values.
As they prepare to begin the next chapter of their lives, Principal Rebecca Bostic offered this advice: “Take the education you have received here and go forth and do good. The world needs you.” Students of the Class of 2026 earned admission to an impressive array of institutions, including Columbia University, Johns Hopkins University, the University of Chicago, Barnard College, Tufts University, Northeastern University, the University of California, Berkeley, UCLA, USC, Bucknell University, Villanova University, and McGill University, among many others. “Thank you for who you are and all you have done for our school during your time here. Come back and visit. Remember, you never leave the Hill,” said Bostic.
The class reflects the diverse talents and passions nurtured during their time at FSHA. Eight graduates will pursue degrees in the visual and performing arts, four will continue competing in varsity athletics at the collegiate level, and four received full-tuition merit scholarships. Of the 47 students enrolling at private colleges and universities, 23 selected faith-based institutions, continuing their educational journeys in communities aligned with their values.
This accomplished class will continue their education at colleges and universities across California, the United States, and around the world. Forty-six graduates will attend colleges outside of California, while two students will pursue international studies in Canada and England.
As the Class of 2026 embarks on a new chapter, one of the greatest gifts of a Flintridge Sacred Heart experience is the sisterhood they have built—a bond rooted in faith, friendship, and shared experiences. This sisterhood does not end at graduation.
“It is my hope for our class that we never forget the bonds we formed even if we find ourselves drifting and becoming absorbed in our new lives; the same way the Justice League continues operating across Metropolis, Gotham, Century City and more, we will always be family tied by the time we’ve spent together regardless of distance,” said Class Valedictorian Eliza Hernandez.
Though their time as students has come to a close, Flintridge Sacred Heart will always be their home. We congratulate the Class of 2026 and look forward to all they will accomplish as women of purpose and promise.
