Welcome to SLVHS Campus Tours for Freshmen Today at 2 pm and Sunday at 1 pm
Hello Freshmen!
We are REALLY excited to welcome you to campus at SLVHS! We are offering campus tours before the start of hybrid learning, which starts for Freshmen on Tuesday, April 20.
Campus tours will be on Friday, April 16 at 2 PM and Sunday, April 18 at 1 PM - meet at the front of the school by the PAC. Tours will be approximately 30 minutes long.
Parents/guardians are welcome as well. Of course, please wear masks and practice social distancing.
Freshmen will receive a copy of their class schedule with room numbers, if possible, as we will be showing students where their classes are as part of the tour.
While your freshman's classes will not change, they may not know how to find them as they have never been to the classroom. So strange.
If you can't make the tour, we will have freshman schedules with Room Numbers available in the Counseling Office on Monday from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm and Tuesday morning before school.

SLVHS / SLVUSD GRAD NIGHT CLASS of 2021
Please Support 2021 Grad Night for our Seniors
[email protected] Website: https://www.slvgradnight.com/
Non-Profit Tax ID #82-5513230 P.O. Box 44, Felton CA. 95018
Dear SLV Supporters,
We are writing on behalf of the 2021 Grad Night Committee, a volunteer group of parents of San Lorenzo Valley High School and Coast Redwood High seniors. For 36 years, parents have put on elaborate, creative Grad Night events that gave seniors a memorable, safe, sober and fun environment the night after graduation.
This is normally funded by in-person events throughout senior year, but 2020-21 has been unique: COVID prevented in-person fundraisers. Fire damage and evacuations reduced the number of families with time, funds and energy to donate and plan. Our generous local businesses have been hit hard. We have done virtual fundraisers (mask and T-shirt sales, Wild Roots community day, Valentine’s baskets) but can’t do the spring Wine and Chocolate event that usually raises about half of Grad Night funds. Instead, we are reaching out with this request to see what kind of event we can put together with a final fundraising effort of direct donations. The class of 2021 missed out on a year and a half of high school traditions. They endured a pandemic, fire, evacuations, and shutdowns yet they are SLV Strong, we know we can still send our seniors off with hope and joy!
WHAT GRAD NIGHT 2021 MIGHT LOOK LIKE (with masks and safe distancing)
We cannot do the traditional inside event of years past, so we are exploring ways to host an outside event. Trying to hold on to some tradition the actual event is a secret, but with the recent changes in the county tiers two exciting guaranteed events have been presented to us, it will be a steep fundraising ladder to climb though. A fun outdoor event on the school campus or a nearby camp is also being explored. Another option, if funding prevents a big event, would be a drive-through celebration at the school similar to last years.
CURRENT FUND STATUS: With seed funds that the Class of 2020 left us, along with the fundraising we have done so far, we are still $11,000 short of our goal and the ultimate experience for our departing Seniors . We are hopeful that our Valley community can work some amazing magic.
OUR BIG REQUEST – TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DIRECT DONATIONS NOW: We know it is a hard year, but if you can, head to our website this week (www.slvgradnight.com) to donate. If it is more convenient, you can also mail your donation to (P.O. Box 44, Felton CA. 95018). Then we can shift from fundraising to planning, knowing what we can afford. No amount is too small. Our hope is that those who cannot donate will share this letter with friends or family who can.
Visit our online store: Limited edition T-shirts and sweatshirts are available to purchase until March 31st. Check out our popular 2-sided face masks. Stay tuned for additional added merchandise coming soon!
Amazon Smile: Sign up now and Grad Night will receive 0.5% percent of what you spend on eligible Amazon orders.
Volunteer: Your time and talents help, too! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c054dadaf2daaff2-grad
Thank you for considering this request and helping all 170 seniors wrap up their year with positivity!
Sincerely,
The 2021 Grad Night Committee

SLVHS Key Club Celebrates Earth Month
SLVHS Key Club came up with several ideas on how to celebrate Earth Day this month.
The idea is that instead of a single event we will showcase different ways that people are helping the environment, and the guide found at the link below outlines a bunch of ways (and reasons) to do so.
"For Earth Month, my family and I have been avoiding single-use products, recycling more, eating organically, planting trees and flowers, and spending more time outside enjoying the world around us. We will continue to do all of these things from now on because Earth Month has shown us how amazing the Earth and how it is important to respect the Earth." - Julia Bradford
"My family has been making an extra effort to recycle efficiently. Making sure that glass and plastic containers are clean, and bagging bunches of plastic bags so that it can all be used and doesn't contaminate our curbside bin" - Mr. Conger
