Tesoro
High school is a name used in some parts of the world, and particularly in North America, to describe the last segment of compulsory secondary education. It is preceded by primary education. High school is also the name used to describe the institution in which the final stage of compulsory education takes place. In the United States, high schools generally consist of grades 9, 10, 11, and 12, although the inclusion of grade 9 varies by school district.
Tesoro High School is a public school in the Capistrano Unified School District, founded in the fall of 2001. As of the 2005 to 2006 year, Tesoro serves over 3,000 students in grades 9-12.

That same year, Tesoro High School's theatre arts department won many Cappies awards. Daniel Burch is the school principal.
In 2005, the Tesoro High School Varsity football team became back-to-back division 9 CIF Champions after beating Northwood High School for the second time that season. A week later, the Tesoro High School Mock Trial team went to the finals against Esperanza High School. Tesoro was moved into the much more competitive South Coast League for sports in the 2006 school year.
