Claremont High School

The Claremont High School Mission Statement was developed by staff, students, and parents over a decade ago, and it continues to be a guidepost on our path to excellence. It states:

We have a commitment to create a nurturing environment which provides a quality education and generates an enthusiasm for learning that will inspire personal, social, and academic lifetime growth.

This vision is expanded in our statement of what students should know, understand, and be able to do, which constitute our Expected Schoolwide Learning Results (ESLRs).

All CHS Graduates will be Career-oriented Goal Setters, Healthy and Balanced Individuals, Seekers and Finders of Information, Problem Solvers and Critical Thinkers, Effective Communicators, and Productive Members of Society (CHS-PEP).

Claremont High School is located in Southern California about thirty miles east of Los Angeles. Nestled in the San Gabriel Valley and the City of Claremont, Claremont High is within walking distance of the consortium of seven Claremont Colleges. Within the Claremont Unified School District, Claremont High is the comprehensive high school, along with seven elementary schools, a school for orthopedically handicapped students, one intermediate school, one continuation high school, one Community Day School, and one Adult School.

Claremont High School serves 2,236 students from a predominantly middle class, college community. The school is proud of its rich diversity, which is noted in over twenty different languages spoken. The student community is 49% White, 26% Hispanic, 15% Asian and Pacific Islander, and 8% African-American. Over 90% are fluent English speakers. Claremont High serves approximately thirty-five orthopedically handicapped students from this and surrounding districts. Staff and students work hard to build a culture of respect and pride. There is a school culture of strong achievement by all students and an expectation of respect for each other.
