PHILOSOPHY
The program of clubs and organizations at Dana Hills High School is based on the belief that students should have the opportunity to pursue interests and develop new friendships by becoming involved in school activities. The Administration and Associated Student Union believe that a varied and active co-curricular program contributes greatly to the development of leadership, self-worth, and ultimately enriches high school life.
