LOYAL
The CAC is committed and dedicated to the values and mission of Escondido High School. We value the friendships gained in high school and maintained with devotion after graduation. Our obligation to helping alumni maintain these relationships is a natural steadfastness for us and is fundamental to our mission.
STRONG
Since 1894, we have proved to be people of not only strength athletically and academically, but also people with strong character. We are honest and fair, show courage in standing up for our beliefs, and have a strong sense of responsibility for our community. We maintain self-respect for ourselves and those around us.
TRUE
Being true to yourself is a key virtue taught at EHS. This involves being devoted and vulnerable; but never naïve. We are firm in our allegiance to the school, its traditions, and to each other. We are not perfect, but to remain true to our character, we pursue the actions needed to improve our inner spirit and remain a Cougar at heart.
