Amador Valley High School….A
Great Place for Kids!
On
behalf of all our students and staff, I would like to welcome
you to the Amador Valley High School Community. We are excited
to begin the 2009-2010 school year. This year we are proud to
announce that during the spring, Newsweek magazine has once again
recognized Amador Valley as one of the top high schools in the
nation.
Amador
Valley High School will be celebrating our annual “Back
to School Night” on Wednesday, September 16th. Our celebration will begin at 6:30 PM
in the large gym. We
are looking forward to an exciting evening filled with many opportunities
for you to visit our award winning classrooms and programs.
In
the spring our students took a record 1335 Advanced Placement
examinations in 23 subjects. Advanced
Placement students scoring a 3 or above are considered to have
passed the Advanced Placement examination. 90%
of our students recorded a passing grade on these rigorous tests
with the students in English Literature and Human Geography receiving
100% passage rates.
Everyone
at Amador Valley is committed to meeting the individual needs
of all our students, while providing a “World Class” educational
program. We have many exciting programs and activities
planned for the upcoming school year. Please encourage your son or daughter to take advantage of
these opportunities and become as fully involved as possible
while attending Amador Valley.
As
the warm weather continues, I would to ask for your help in reminding
your student of the dress code at Amador Valley High School. The
dress code for students was established to “promote
a positive and safe learning environment conducive to high academic
and behavior standards.” Please take a moment and discuss with
your student the importance of appropriate dress at school.
As
always, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free
to contact me at your earliest convenience.
Best
Wishes,
Bill
