Meet Our Principal, Chris Dowler
Welcome to our school community. It is an honor to serve as principal and to work alongside our dedicated students, staff, and families.
I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and my master’s degree from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly). I have worked in public education for 27 years and have been proud to serve in the San Luis Coastal Unified School District for more than 15 years.
Our school is committed to providing a supportive and engaging learning environment where every student has the opportunity to grow academically, socially, and personally. We believe in challenging students to think critically, work collaboratively, and develop the skills they need for success beyond high school.
I look forward to partnering with our families and community to ensure that all students feel valued, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.
