    My daughter, Melissa Blackburn, graduated from Aliso Nieguel in 1997. She has graduated from UC Santa Cruz with a Bachelors of Science Degree in Marine Biology. She is currently working on her Masters Degree @ Central Washington University. Aliso Niguel was an excellent high school that helped to prepare her for college.
