Most of the students come from Lone Hill Middle School which shares the same city block as the High School. The school has a student body of 1,296 and an API score of 839. The mascot is the Saint and was originally depicted as a knight slaying a dragon. The school is also referred to by students as SD. Its colors are royal blue and bright gold.
San Dimas High School was opened in 1970 to serve the growing population of San Dimas, California[1]. A distinctive bell tower was built on campus in 1980 to create an icon for the main quad. The bell tower houses the bell from the original San Dimas Elementary School and is rung each time a team wins a CIF Championship. The bell tower was refurbished in 2011 with a wider base to support the structure [2]. Each year the school plays their cross town rivals, Bonita High School, in the Smudge Pot Bowl football game [3]. The winner of the game takes home a silver smudge pot reminiscent of the area's citrus growing history.
San Dimas High School has been named a California Distinguished School three times, most recently in 2009 [4]. It has been on Newsweek Magazine's list of "America's Best High Schools," most recently in 2010 [5]. The Animation Program received a Golden Bell Award from the California School Boards Association in 2007.
