Dear Alta Loma Students & Families:
 

Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year at Alta Loma High School. I would like to welcome back our sophomores, juniors, and seniors! A special Lion Welcome to our incoming freshmen, the class of 2030! Lions, I am excited to begin our journey together as your Principal at Alta Loma High School.


Last year, Alta Loma’s staff accomplished many initiatives with the aim of achieving our school-wide vision: "Alta Loma High School students will graduate ready for college and careers.” In the  2026 - 2027 school year we are excited to introduce our new 5 Star Digital Hall Pass System and our Cell Phone Policy. We offer our outstanding academic programs and elective opportunities at Alta Loma. Our unique 3rd Period Academy Program features lessons specifically designed for freshmen and academic support for upper classmen. Our Academy program adds a short period within the school day that includes several components, including a freshmen transition program (Lion Academy), Link Crew, tutorials, and enrichment activities.  For more information about the Academy Program, visit our website at alhs.cjuhsd.net.
