    Our AHSCC Positions

It is important for us to all come together,and support our new local high school, and the Grossmont Union High School District’s Proposition U. This measure is essential to keep all of our GUHSD East County high schools viable.

Proposition U is an investment in our East County economy, and Alpine's local economy. An Alpine HS will be a boon for local business, and for our area's realestate desirability and values.

Prop H and U will not only bring Alpine a new high school, it will also provide all Grossmont District high schools with the infrastructure that is necessary to assure a strong future. The district-wide modernized classrooms will help assure success for college-bound students, and the 30 planned magnet career technology centers will assure the best training for non-college bound students.

These Propositions have something for everyone, at a cost that is insignificant when weighed against the certainty of increased prosperity, especially for all future East County high school graduates and future parents.

An Alpine HS will also strengthen the financial viability of our local elementary schools' (AUSD) for generations to come; helping the Alpine Union School District.

There are a few vocal AHSCC critics "spinning or mis-characterizing" the positions of the Alpine High School Citizens’ Committee;

Re: Our supported size of the proposed high school, and whom attends it. 


Here are five (5) true facts:

(1) The Alpine High School Citizens’ Committee wants as large a high school as the Grossmont Union High School District is willing to fund. 

(2) The Alpine High School Citizens’ Committee wants the boundaries of the proposed high school to encompass communities outside of Alpine, including all those that were intended under the original Prop H, and also the more recent Prop U.

(3) The Alpine High School Citizens’ Committee wants vibrant sports and performing arts programs at the proposed high school.

(4) The Grossmont Union High School District has sole control over the funding, size, design and content of the high school. 

(5) The Alpine High School Citizens' Committee encourages all those from Blossom Valley, Harbison Canyon, Crest, Dehesa, Alpine, or any other community with a civic interest to attend all meetings, and advocate for their community. 

The AHSCC encourages all to assist us... to advocate for, and influence, all of the above. 

Let's not pit our communities against one another as a few folks seem to be doing. We all want the intent of Props H & U to be a reality. Let us be "one for all and all for one".

Let's lobby for a high school that is comprehensive, and sized large enough to service all of Blossom Valley and Alpine. Let us do this in a friendly and collaborative fashion, that is a joint partnership between our communities and the GUHSD. 
   
Sincerely,

Bill Weaver, Chairman | Alpine High School Citizens' Committee
