Non-citizens pay taxes too. And you haven't paid for that school yet.
It will be paid for over the next 30 years, much of which time the
kids at that high school will be adults working in the community and
paying taxes either directly as homeowners or indirectly as renters.

None of the high schools in Hemet meet the state standard API score.
Hemet High, which appears to be the best scoring, scores below average
compared to similar schools in the state. None of the schools have
SAT scores significantly above the national average. Someone has a
strange idea of what a top-ranking school is.
And if you aren't in Hemet, then your taxes aren't going to be paying
for the high school.

I just looked up the statistics for the other 4 high schools in that
school district for 2005-2006. This new high school that opened would
have taken its enrollment from students at these other schools. In
fact, the school website says that most of its students would have
attended West Valley High.
Hamilton High 25.3%% Hispanic
West Valley High 38%% Hispanic
Hemet High 27.1%% Hispanic
Alessandro High 45.5%% Hispanic
Hemet and West Valley have most of the students - the other two
schools are small, and Hamilton serves middle and high schoolers.
The middle school that is the primary feeder school for the new school
is 49.3%% Hispanic, so that is a better estimate of the Hispanic
enrollment. Only 20%% of the students are English learners.
Since some percentage of Hispanic kids in Southern California are not
"anchor babies" (since Southern CA has had a high Hispanic population
as long as statistics have been collected), it would have taken some
really creative gerrymandering to make a new school have such a high
Hispanic enrollment that the label "vast majority" could apply to the
"anchor babies" that are a subset thereof. And if it did do so, the
other schools would presumably have even lower Hispanic enrollments,
which this racist would presumably appreciate.

It has an enrollment of 1400, so those two grade levels still make for
a sizeable population.
Hemet has a population of around 75,000 and 88 sworn police officers.
2 officers for 1400 people is almost exactly what the averages would
suggest.

But of course nowadays, even in schools with all US citizens, that
isn't the case. Indeed, at my son's high school, which really IS a
top-ranking school in the country, and had an enrollment over 4 grades
only slightly higher than the new school, has two police officers.
Even the middle schools have a police officer.

I couldn't find the high school cafeteria prices, but the lunch price
for paying students at one middle school is $1.50. Your kids could
thus have the same food that they have for around $4 per day.

Those anchor babies are at least as likely to serve in the army as
your kids are.
2 police officers does not equal a war zone.

So in at least 2 of the three *off-campus* incidents involving a
weapon, the weapon was being wielded by an adult not attending the
school.
Some war zone.
Imagined ravings of a subhuman racist slime.
