Helendale School District Presents
In the California high desert, there is a town
where the storms part around you.
Locals call it the hole in the sky.
For centuries, travelers followed the Mojave River
through Point of Rocks.
1897  ·  The railroad called it Helen
1918  ·  It became Helendale
1926  ·  Route 66 rolled past the front door
Freight trains still thunder down the Transcon.
Vista Road crosses the tracks, and you are home.
Today, they call it Silver Lakes.
North Lake. South Lake. Room to grow.
