Students
The student population is fairly diverse demographically, and very diverse socioeconomically. Students come from some of the most wealthy and most disadvantaged areas in San Bernardino County. The demographic breakdown is as follows: 5% African American, 20% Asian, 35% Hispanic/Latino, and 40% Caucasian. In recent years, the population of Asian American students has risen drastically.
Approximately 15% receive reduced lunch, and more than 30 languages are spoken by CHHS students.
