Students Back at SVHS This Week

Although most public and private school students in Sonoma County have this week off, it’s different at Sonoma Valley High: It’s school as usual for the Dragons.

ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR WEEK OF March 25-29

Mauna Kea Student of the Week is Alison Mysliwczyk -- Alison has made huge improvements in all of her classes, is extremely responsible, hard-working, and is a good role-model for fellow classmates. Way to go Alison!

Attention Seniors -- Jostens will be here on Tuesday, March 26, during break and lunch to distribute graduation announcements. Cap and gown orders can be taken at this time as well. They will have a tent near the rotunda.

Come support Jonah Son and Brennan Cole in their Senior Project -- a Home Run Derby to support the SVHS baseball program . The event will be held from 11:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 30, at Arnold Field. High school age participants will take swings between 3:00 - 5:00 p.m. There will be lots of prizes, great raffle items, a BBQ and music all day. All are welcome to participate; you don’t have to be a ball player! Check out the flyers around campus for more information.

Attention Seniors – Do you still need to order your cap & gown? Stop by the Student Activities Office to pick up an Individual Order Form. All orders must be received by Monday, April 1, to be included with the SVHS group delivery and distribution. Fax or send the order form directly to Jostens. Please see the Individual Order Form for more details.

The SVHS Boosters Club is having their annual Boosters Bash on Saturday, May 4, at Hanna Boys Center -- We hope you will support the fundraising efforts this year by donating to our silent/live auctions that will be taking place at the event. We are looking for gift certificates from restaurants & businesses, wine and items for the home. Just think if every family gave one item of a value of $50 or above and how that would benefit our school. Please consider giving & attending the Boosters Bash. Your support will help to ensure the continuation of vital extracurricular activities that maintain the success of our high school and community. Email us at svhsboosters@sonomavly.k12.ca.us.

Kristin Gare and Jordann Dagner are collecting goods and letters to send to soldiers overseas -- They are looking for donations of nonperishable food, toiletries, magazines, books, and anything of this nature to place in care packages. There is a red, white, and blue collection bin in the office. Please donate to support the troops and their Senior Project!
