The End of the World (With Prom to Follow) By Sean Abley
October 15-24 Fridays & Saturdays @ 7:00 p.m. Sundays @ 2:00 p.m.
Thursday, October 21 @ 7:00 p.m. (Community Night)
Tickets: $12 General $10 Student/Senior/SLV Staff $10 Community Night - all tickets
Get your tickets for The End of the World (With Prom to Follow), written by Sean Abley, a contemporary play co-directed by SLVHS seniors Jacqueline Lopez and Shimona Miller. The play is set in Great Falls, Montana. The students of Charles M. Russell High School awake to find no parents, no siblings, no teachers. Everyone but the student body has vanished. It might sound like a dream to some high schoolers, but for these teenagers it is the stuff of reality. There is a Wall of Light encircling their town that is progressively moving inward and their town is steadily disappearing. In the face of this mystery, the students band together...and splinter apart. What can they do to stop it? What's on the other side? Will there still be time for one last dance? An exciting drama/comedy, this play explores mortality, friendship, and the survival of ethics when survival itself is at stake. Performances are at the SLV Performing Arts Center (PAC).

SLV Unified School District has Job Openings
We are pleased to announce that the Santa Cruz County Office of Education Student Leadership and Engagement Programs will be starting up again in September!
There are 5 different groups students may choose to participate in. The only requirement is to be a Santa Cruz County High School student:
Community of Practice: Racial Justice & Equity - select Fridays
In this eight session, small group, active-learning program for students and educators, you'll have an opportunity to: (1) explore your social identities and the various ways they influence the TK-12 educational experience; (2) examine the social construction of whiteness and its perpetuation in the TK-12 system; and (3) acquire the practical tools to take meaningful action around racism in your domain of influence.
Countywide Black Student Union - meets virtually Tuesdays
This is a safe space for, but not limited to, students who identify as Black/African/African American/Biracial & so on. We foster a healthy environment where students connect, reflect, inform, and heal. Although there are facilitated topics/themes/conversations, our student members typically begin to feel comfortable bringing up what they feel is necessary. From conversations about hair products to generational PTSD, we address whatever y’all wanna talk about. We offer a middle school group, a highschool group, and for adults/educators we recommend reviewing the “community of practice: Racial Justice & Equity” group as a more structured/educational approach to B.S.U .
Queer and Trans Youth Council - meets virtually TBD
The Queer and Trans Youth Council endeavors to heighten a sense of community and solidarity among the LGBTQIA+ youth of Santa Cruz County. The Council strives to bridge the larger community as a whole with LGBTQIA+ folks, provide allies for youth, and tackle hardships that LGBTQIA+ youth face. The Council is also an advisory chamber to the Queer Youth Task Force of Santa Cruz County and works to create projects and events to support the LGBQTQIA+ community.
Youth Artists Taking Action - meets virtually on Wednesdays at 4
This is a group of students who want to explore the arts with other students in our community. They want to create, design, and develop artistic projects; become involved in social action involving the arts; participate in student performances; lead community arts team-building;, manage social media/communications for the arts; give presentations about the arts, produce videos, and conduct research about the arts. If you imagine it, we can do it.
Youth for Environmental Action - meets virtually on Thursdays at 4
The purpose of Youth for Environmental Action is to connect students who care about the environment and take action together for the future. YEA students work on projects that increase school sustainability, advocate with school leaders for change, and plan and lead Santa Cruz County’s annual Environmental Action Summit bringing together community leaders, educators and students to find solutions.
All students who are a part of any of the groups mentioned above will also be a part of the Youth Led Leadership Alliance which meets once a month on Saturdays from 10am-2pm.
