Dos Pueblos High School
Nestled between the mountains and the sea, west of Santa Barbara, "Dos Pueblos High School" was established in Goleta Valley 1966 and serves a diverse population of 2300 students in grades 9-12. The ethnic make up of the student body is 61% white, 29% Hispanic, 6% Asian, 2% African American, & 2% other.
Dos Pueblos is a National Blue Ribbon School. "DP or DPHS" as it's called has a student population of 2400 students grades 9-12. The school mascot is the "Charger." Dos Pueblos was the first school to win a CIF Division I title in all of Santa Barbara County. Dos Pueblos is currently undergoing major renovation including the building of a large theater and finishing of a new football stadium, which makes all of the school look like a war zone.
DPHS enjoys the support of many individuals and parent organizations. Our PTSA is an active partner in building strong home and school communications by sending out a monthly newsletter, providing volunteers for school activities, and by raising money for academics, athletics and activities on the Dos Pueblos campus. We also have a separate school site council that meets monthly to assist in the evaluation and financial support of our educational programs. Collaboration with the University of California, Westmont College and Santa Barbara City College provide active support for our students. DPHS supports active college representative visitations; works closely with local foundations for scholarships and loans; and utilizes local counseling and social services.
