School Notes

  • Academic excellence is the core of FSHA, and the school`s broad curriculum prepares graduates well for their journey into higher education.
  • As with virtually all FSHA alumnae, 100% of the Class of 2018 are attending college. These talented young women were the recipients of many academic, athletic and leadership scholarships at a variety of universities and colleges throughout the country.
  • Students at each grade level participate in spiritual retreats led by adult and trained peer counselors, and include one- and two-day retreats for underclasswomen, a four-day retreat to Catalina Island for juniors, and two days of prayer and a four-day Kairos retreat for seniors.
  • Students are trained as peer leaders in the Campus Ministry Leadership Team, as Journey leaders and as Kairos leaders, all of whom help lead retreats.
  • The Visual and Performing Arts program has, from the school`s inception, always been a vital part of the FSHA curriculum. In addition to being able to select from a wide variety of arts classes, students present a full-scale musical production each year, plus a drama or comedy on the alternate semester.
  • Members of the school`s dance companies, and participants in all dance classes, stage a dance concert in the spring of each year, featuring FSHA dancers and student choreography. Dance students also perform in the annual musical.
  • Four musical recitals are held each year to showcase piano, chamber music, orchestra, advanced music and the contemporary band. Student musicians may also play for school liturgies, the student musical and at graduation.
