Message from the Principal
Dear Otay Ranch High School Mustangs,
As we approach the end of May, I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge and celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. This month is a time to honor the rich history, cultures, and contributions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders to our nation's identity.
Just a friendly reminder that we only have two and a half weeks remaining in the school year! With the upcoming four-day Memorial Day weekend, please note that Senior finals will be held on Tuesday, May 28th and Wednesday, May 29th. We encourage all seniors to do their best as they wrap up their high school days. I encourage all students to use the remaining time in the semester to focus on their studies and finish the year strong.
I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe Memorial Day weekend. We look forward to a strong finish to the school year!
Go Big BLUE!
Sincerely,
Julio Alcalá
Principal, Otay Ranch High School

Congratulations Jordan Epps!
Recognized by Ms. Lani Hernandez for demonstrating Belonging, Learning, and Unity:
"Jordan is an awesome student to have in class. He has a positive and friendly attitude. Is always participating, willing to help, gets all work done and doesn't get distracted by others. He leads by example!"
Congratulations Adrian Charlemagne!
Recognized by Mrs. Loya-Estrada for demonstrating Learning and Empathy:
"Adrian is thoughtful and considerate of others. He typically volunteers to help with tasks when other students sit passively waiting for someone else to step up and lend a helping hand. Other impressive character traits that Adrian possesses are his work ethic and ability to be disciplined and focused. His character traits earned him a 100% on his last Spanish test!"
Congratulations Evan Antonio!

"Evan is being recommended for his continuous improvement throughout his freshmen year. His hard work, active participation, and great attitude sets a commendable example in the classroom. He shows willingness towards learning and helping others."
Student Parking Registration
Mustangs,
To increase our efforts in ensuring the safety of our campus, we began issuing student parking permits at the ASB Finance windows (the ones that face the main office).
In order to get a parking permit, you will need to fill out the following registration form: Parking Permit Registration
(You must sign in with your Student Google Account)
After the form is completely filled out, you may come to the Finance windows and show your Valid Driver License. You will then be issued a parking permit that must be hung on your rear view mirror anytime you park on campus.
After a two week grace period, any car parked in student parking lots without a student parking permit will be subject to be being towed at the owner’s expense.
If you have any questions please let me know.
Thank you,
Mr. Tapia
Asst. Principal
