We invite you to attend the webinar this evening with Dr. George Steinhoff and key administrators to discuss school climate and culture at Sun Valley High School. Click here for information about the webinar and to access the Zoom credentials. We hope you can join us.
Please review the message from Dr. Steinhoff regarding masks in Penn-Delco Schools. To ensure that we are in accord with the statewide changes to K-12 mask requirements, the District will continue to recommend that all persons in our schools wear masks, without the expectation of enforcing a mask requirement that is no longer in effect in Pennsylvania.

Help us get as many photos as possible to create a terrific book everyone will want to have. See the flyer posted on the school webpage and your class Schoology pages for the website and log in information. The last day to submit your photos is January 15th.
