The Chaffey District supports this daily act. We realize that our efforts uniquely influence the future of our community and of this nation, and we are passionate about doing whatever it takes to prepare students to be successful and contributing citizens of the 21st century.

Ontario Jaguars,
 
Welcome back to the new school year! We’ve missed you, and we are beyond excited to have everyone back on campus. Thank you for kicking off the 2025-2026 school year with such enthusiasm and energy. Our entire staff is thrilled to begin this journey with you, and we’re ready to make this year one of growth, success, and unforgettable memories.
 
At Ontario High School, the safety and well-being of our students and staff remain our top priority. We will continue to implement necessary precautions to maintain a safe and healthy learning environment for everyone.
 
Our commitment to your success is unwavering. High school is an exciting time filled with countless opportunities for learning and growth. We encourage you to embrace all that OHS has to offer whether that’s building relationships with your teachers, joining a club, trying out for a sport, or exploring the many extracurricular activities available. Studies show that students who get involved are not only more successful academically but also feel more connected to their school community, know where to turn for help, and thrive in a supportive environment.
 
As part of our mission to prepare all students for college and career success, OHS continues to offer a variety of extended learning opportunities. These include, before- and after-school tutoring, Saturday RISE programs, credit recovery, and enrichment classes during 0 and 7th period. Additionally, we encourage students and parents to stay connected through Aeries, Canvas, and Parent Square for real-time updates on attendance, grades, and class progress. Be sure to update your data confirmation information to stay informed!
 
Jaguars, your attendance and active participation are vital to your success. Be sure to follow the bell schedule, attend class on time, engage in discussions, and complete assignments to the best of your ability. We also encourage families to schedule off-campus appointments after school hours to ensure students can fully participate in their learning without disruption.
 
Our pursuit of excellence in education continues as we strive to provide the best experience possible. Through the California Dashboard, we will track our growth and areas for improvement, ensuring that we continuously enhance our programs. To learn more about our school’s performance, please visit the CA Dashboard.
