Dear Sea King Families,

I hope everyone enjoyed a relaxing and restful weekend with family and friends. Our Booster Club hosted our annual Catch the Wave fundraiser on Friday evening. The event was a wonderful opportunity for our Sea King families to come together, celebrate our school community, and raise funds for our students and programs. Thank you to everyone who attended, bid on items, and sponsored the event. PVHS would not be the school it is without the generosity of our school community.

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
