Principal's Message

Cougars,

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! As the principal of Rancho Cucamonga High School, I am excited and honored to welcome all our students back on Wednesday, August 6th, especially our incoming 9th graders, the Class of 2029! We are excited to kick off the school year and welcome our Cougars to Rancho Cucamonga High School with plenty of energy and enthusiasm.

 

Please expect your summer mailer to arrive through the US postal service around mid-July. It is important to read all the enclosed documents and ensure that all forms in the registration packet are completed before our scheduled registration days, which start near the end of July. The schedule for these registration days is listed below.

For parents and guardians of incoming freshmen, we invite you to attend our Parent Information Meeting in our auditorium. This presentation will occur concurrently with your student’s freshman orientation and will provide information on how parents can engage with our school and staff, as well as support your student’s academic success throughout high school and beyond.

 

We recognize the vital role parents and guardians play in their student’s development and success. Your involvement helps build a strong partnership with the school. We encourage you to connect with some of our committees and parent groups, such as our ELAC, AAPAC, and Booster Clubs. For more information on these opportunities and more, please reach out to Mrs. Alyssa Castro, our Assistant Principal of Achievement.
