Helix Charter High School is a comprehensive high school, located in La Mesa, California. Helix opened in 1951 and served the community as a traditional public high school until we converted to a charter school in 1998. Helix was the first public comprehensive high school in California to convert to a charter high school, and while much about the educational program has changed to best serve the student population, the tradition of the school has remained. Helix boasts a history of academic excellence, outstanding arts, athletics, and activities and it continues to serve as a community school, while welcoming those in the surrounding areas through its charter status.

Helix is now using Anonymous Alerts, a confidential system that allows students to report bullying, behavioral concerns, or campus safety issues 24/7, either through a mobile app or a web-based platform. This system replaces the previous Student Safety Form and offers enhanced features, including the ability for staff to communicate anonymously with the person reporting. This two-way communication allows us to gather additional details, provide follow-up, and respond more effectively to concerns.

To get started:

  • We recommend all students download the Anonymous Alerts app on their phones if possible. They can also use this link to the web-based platform - https://tips.anonymousalerts.com/helixcharterhs/
  • Enter activation code: helixcharterhs

We appreciate your continued support in keeping our campus safe and welcoming for everyone.
