Dear Sea King Families,

Our final of the quarter of school started this week. It is amazing how quickly this school year flying by! As the weather warms up and senioritis kicks into overdrive, let's remind our students to finish the year strong! Third-quarter grades will be available to view on Aeries later this week. Check your email for updates on the availability of the grades in your parent and student portal.

I had the opportunity to see our amazing drama department on stage last night in their latest musical performance, Matilda. We have an incredibly talented group of students in this production, from the actors on the stage to the crew managing backstage and the musicians in the pit. Congratulations to everyone involved for their work and dedication, with a special thank you to our drama teacher and director, Nicole Thompson! Bravo to our PVHS drama and music departments!

This Friday is our annual Booster Club fundraiser, Catch the Wave. We have a unique set-up for our Booster Club at PVHS with one entity that supports the three A's - academics, arts, and athletics. It is through the support of our Booster Club that PVHS is able to offer such a wide range of opportunities for our students, as well as complete numerous campus projects and improvements. I encourage parents to join us for this fun evening while supporting all students at PVHS. Click here to purchase tickets to the event. If you are unable to join us, there are so many great items available through the online auction. Check it out! Thank you to our Booster Club and parent planning committee for their ongoing support of our school.

I continue to be grateful for this opportunity to work with our PVHS students, faculty, staff, and families. Have a great week Sea King Family!

Sincerely,

Dr. Trista Ramirez
PVHS Principal
