This was the best high school in the area way back in 1981 when my family moved to La Mesa. My parents chose La Mesa because of Helix High School. I graduated in 1983. I loved my math teacher & geography teacher. I was involved in the choir as well as other activities. My best friend lived right across the street. Together with the football team, power puff football, swimming & the Moye twins, Helix was the best experiencing of my life.
