About

On May 14th, 2014, a fire that would later be known as the "Poinsettia Fire"[1] began.

It started off calm enough, but due to the high winds and high temperatures, quickly spread out of control.

At this point, the Class of 2017 was the only class attending Sage Creek.

Though the fire didn't end up burning too near to Sage Creek, instead preferring the dry brush near Aviara Oaks Middle School, the students were still evacuated.

The fire ended up destroying 8 buildings, and had one fatality, and was the second most destructive fire in the history of San Diego county, at an estimated $22.5 million[2].
