Principal's Message

As your new Principal, I'm thrilled to lead this exceptional community of learners, educators, and families. California High has a proud tradition of academic excellence and student achievement, and I'm excited to build on that foundation while exploring new possibilities and creating fresh opportunities for our students to succeed.

 

At Cal High, we soar together as Condors. Our core values, PRIDE, guide everything we do:

Productive use of our time and attention
Respect for one another and our diverse community
Integrity in our words and actions
Dependability in our commitments and responsibilities
Excellence in all our endeavors

 

These values shape our school culture and prepare our students for success in college, careers, and life. They also form the foundation upon which we can build a future full of possibilities.

 

California High School is more than just a place of learning; it's a launching pad for dreams and aspirations. We believe that every student who walks through our doors is brimming with potential, and it's our mission to help them uncover and nurture that potential. Our dedicated faculty and staff are committed to providing a supportive environment where students can explore their interests, discover new passions, and push the boundaries of their capabilities.

 

In today's rapidly changing world, we recognize the importance of preparing our students not just for the present, but for a future filled with opportunities we can only imagine. That's why we're constantly evolving our curriculum and programs to ensure they remain relevant and forward-thinking. From advanced placement courses to our five career technical academies, from arts and humanities to athletics and extracurricular activities, we offer a wide range of opportunities for students to grow, challenge themselves, and excel.

 

But opportunities at California High extend beyond the classroom. We encourage our students to engage with the community, participate in service learning, and develop leadership skills that will serve them well throughout their lives. Whether it's through student government, clubs, or community partnerships, there are countless ways for Condors to spread their wings and make a positive impact.

 

As we embark on this new school year, I challenge every student to embrace our core values, seek out new possibilities, and seize the opportunities that await. Push yourself outside your comfort zone, try something new, and don't be afraid to fail – for it's often through our failures that we learn our most valuable lessons and discover our true strengths.

 

To our parents and guardians, thank you for entrusting us with your children's education. Your support and involvement are crucial to our students' success, and I look forward to partnering with you throughout the year.

 

To our faculty and staff, your dedication and passion for education inspire me daily. Together, we will create an environment where innovation thrives, curiosity is nurtured, and every student has the opportunity to soar.

 

As your Principal, my door is always open. I welcome your ideas, your concerns, and your visions for making California High School an even stronger place of learning and growth. Let's work together to ensure that every Condor graduates not just with a diploma, but with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to pursue their dreams and make a positive difference in the world.

 

The possibilities are endless. Let's make this year our best yet. Go Condors!
