COMMUNITY SERVICE OPPORTUNITY
STUDENT VOLUNTEERS NEEDED 
                            
The Gabriella's Snow Day event needs student volunteers. It will be held on Saturday, 12/1/18, from 12 to 4 pm at Sky Park in Scotts Valley.

 SCHOOL ADVISORY COUNCIL REQUEST
The SVHS School Advisory Council (SAC) is seeking a new Community representative. The SAC committee has several goals. The first is to convey information about school programs to parents, students and the larger community. Just as importantly, we ask the committee for their input on improving school programs or even creating new programs. If you'd care to read our meeting minutes, you can find them posted on the SVHS website.
 
We currently have an opening for a Community representative.   This position is meant to be held by an adult in the larger Scotts Valley community who is neither parent nor staff. It could be a parent of a graduated student, a parent of an elementary or middle school student, or even someone with no direct connection to the schools such as a service club member or business owner. All we ask is that our Community member have an interest in improving SVHS and the ability to attend six late-afternoon meetings a year.
 
If you know of someone who might be interested, please have them contact John Postovit at jpostovit@scottsvalleyusd.org
