The San Dieguito High School District has 5 high schools. Torrey Pines and La Costa Canyon are traditional high schools and attendance is based on where you live.

San Dieguito Academy and Canyon Crest Academy are schools of choice (similar to a magnet school). Anyone who lives in the district can apply to go to these schools and they hold a lottery for enrollment if too many kids want to go there.

Therefore, if you lived in PHR you technically have three public high school choices: Torrey, Canyon Crest, and San Dieguito.

(BTW – the 5th high school is Sunset – a continuation school).

I don’t know how many parking lots are advertised along 56 west but at least one of them is at a high school. This parking is only for members of the media.

I am just beginning the process of thinking about buying a home (no sooner than a year from now). I have been scouring the Internet for information on everything from when to buy to how mortgages work. This site and a couple others have been wonderful sources of information and I finally feel like I have something to contribute.

Marion brings up a good point about the CA state standards. It is extremely difficult for a public school teacher to teach something that is not in the standards.

The CA state standards can be found here – http://www.cde.ca.gov/be/st/ss/

The class that would be the most logical place for instruction about personal finance would be the 12th grade Economics class. However, there is nothing in their standards about that – http://www.cde.ca.gov/be/st/ss/hstgrade12.asp (scroll about halfway down for the econ section). The focus is on economics on a national level not a personal one.

I am about to finish my 7th year teaching in San Diego. I have in worked in several schools (including 3 years in a San Dieguito District high school) and the only thing close to a finance class was called “Business Math.” However, I don’t think it was a very rigorous course because the students who took it needed an easy math class. Granted, it may be different now.

I currently teach in a private high school and we don’t offer such a course. Neither do two other private high schools I looked at.
