Del Oro High School

Week Twelve - Fall 2026

Posted Date: 10/30/26 (06:55 AM)

A nighttime high school football game at Del Oro High School, featuring players on a red and blue field with text reading "WEEK TWELVE @ Del Oro High School."

Principal’s Message:

Last Friday night, I was incredibly proud of our football team. Their energy and intensity on the field were contagious, and they fought hard until the very end. It was one of those games that reminded me how much I love watching our students compete.

At the same time, I was disappointed by some of our fans' behavior toward the officials. It didn't reflect who we are or what we want Del Oro to represent.

I decided to leave out all the other updates from this week's email because I really want you to take a few minutes to watch the video below.

You'll see some highlights from Friday's game, hear more about what happened in the stands, and get an important message from Coach Parry about his expectations for our players, families, and fans.

We have so much to be proud of at Del Oro, and I believe we can celebrate our teams, compete with incredible passion, and still treat the people around us with respect.

Please take a few minutes to watch. I think it's an important conversation for our entire community.
