Hello Brahmas!
Brahma Cinematics is excited to present DBHS with its 14th annual Doppelganger Film Festival on Friday, March 24 at 6:00 PM. Filmmakers have been working diligently in front and behind the camera throughout the year to create their personal projects.
Students have submitted films in multiple categories: Short Film, Theatrical Trailer, Commercial/PSA, Music Video, Animation, Out of the Box, and Eye Opener.
This is alongside our collaboration with REACH for Mental Health Awareness, which provides a $500 scholarship to the best documentary in the Eye Opener Category. In addition, this year we are proud to work with Ms. Dizon for the second year in a row on our new animation category.
Please attend and support your DBHS students and also enjoy a wonderful performance from Mr. Jarvis' Commercial Music students!
Tickets will be on sale at lunch in the quad in Mr. Enriquez's room (#271), and in person at the event. We look forward to seeing you all there!

Parking Lot Traffic Pattern
Dear Brahma Parents and Guardians,
Thank you for following the traffic pattern and cones setup in the student parking lot. Our parking lot cones will go into position in period 5 and straighten out for normal flow at 3:40 PM. Please see the map (above) to see the cones that will be guiding traffic from period 5 to 3:40 PM. In the morning, the cones will be straight to allow the free flow of traffic.
Special thanks to Assistant Principal, Dr. Chang, Security Staff Andy Abril, Harrison Lindsey, John Rodriguez, Alicia Valdes, Lisa Wong-Owens, & Gary Warren for keeping our parking lot safe!
Go Brahmas!
Walnut Valley Unified School District has moved to ParentSquare!
We are excited to let you know that starting the 2022-2023 school year, ParentSquare will be replacing Blackboard Connect as the new district-wide communication platform. ParentSquare, will allow Diamond Bar High to unify all parent communication from the district, schools, classrooms, and school activity groups under one umbrella.
With ParentSquare you’ll be able to
- Receive all school and classroom communication via email, text or app
- View and download photos
- View the school and available classroom calendars
It is our hope that WVUSD's partnership with ParentSquare will enable a stronger dialogue between school & home. We also hope it will help empower everyone within the school community to stay connected and informed.
While ParentSquare can send messages through both email and text messages, we believe the best experience will be through the phone/tablet app which you can download by the links below.
DOWNLOAD FROM APPLE'S APP STORE
You can also create a password for your ParentSquare account on your computer by clicking HERE.
