"Cal Hi", as it is known, is home to the Condors, with around 3,100 students currently attending. The mascot is the condor and the school colors are navy and gold. The campus is located outside the city limits of Whittier in unincorporated South Whittier.[2]
Cal Hi has been recently honored as a California Distinguished School, and is highly praised for its academies.[by whom?] It also offers a Latin program. Many sports are offered, such as golf, soccer, tennis, water polo, swimming, softball, baseball, volleyball, cross-country, wrestling, track, cheerleading and football. The band has also won many commendations and awards, including sweepstakes at the local Band Jam competition 4 years running under the direction of Doug Nordquist (2004–2006), and has ranked 6th in the SCSBOA Marching Band Championship Competition!
These three-year programs teach students about their chosen course of study during their Sophomore, Junior, and Senior year.
