RVHS Newsletter

Dear Parents and Students,

Happy Sunday!

Fun Night

Thanks to everybody who came out to our FUN NIGHT this past Thursday! We had around 140 students and parents attend! It was a lot of fun--with tacos, raffles, games, and a clothing thrift store! Thanks for coming to our school and enjoying a couple of (fun) hours with us! It was time well spent! (Check out some photos from the event below).

Progress Report Grades Now Posted

Can you believe that we have already finished HALF of Quarter 4?? "Progress Report" grades are NOW POSTED in Infinite Campus! Parents: please check out the grades so that you know the progress your student is making towards graduation! All in-person classes must be passed as well as all online Credit Recovery classes!

Community Service

As you know, seniors are required to do 30 hours of community service. This is not optional and a student's diploma will not be issued unless this requirement is met! Students have a little over four weeks to get the 30 hours done! Here is a list of community service opportunities that students can choose from along with the phone numbers to call. The form also gives students an idea of what to say when they call seeking to set up an appointment to meet to earn community service hours. Our experience is that JUST SETTING UP THE APPOINTMENT is a big barrier for students completing this requirement. Parents, if you can speak with your graduating senior about this and encourage them (as we're doing here at Rancho) it would be greatly appreciated. If you have any questions about community service please let us know!

Annual Family Update

Returning RVHS students, it's time to complete the Annual Family Update (online registration). This update is crucial for officially enrolling your student for the 2025-2026 school year. Failure to complete it may result in your student not being enrolled. We highly recommend completing it as soon as possible. Click on the TVUSD Annual Family Update website website to find the instructions and the link to Infinite Campus’s Parent Portal to complete the form.

Have a great week!

David Schlottman

Principal

This week we will have make up testing for any students who have not completed testing or missed testing due to an absence.

Students from Rancho Vista High School will be graduating along with other seniors from Susan Nelson High School, and adults earning their diploma from Temecula Valley Adult School.

I've noticed that for some readers unless this newsletter is opened as a webpage some of the links don't work! Here's a link to the "Community Service" log!

This year graduating seniors will need to complete 30 hours of community service! We'll be highlighting different opportunities in this newsletter. Students can also see additional service opportunities that are listed at the counseling clerk's desk! Check them out and get those 30 hours done!

ALSO: some students have been asking if they can graduate (get their diploma and attend the graduation ceremony) without completing the 30 hours. The answer is no! Students must complete the 30 hours in order to be considered a graduate in our district!

Welcome to our TVUSD Web Store! To get started... 1. Create an account. 2. Add your student(s) to your account under "My Family". 3. Begin shopping for products. Note: Student ID#'s are located on the student's Infinite Campus page. Drop any leading 00's in the student ID.

We understand that unexpected challenges, such as job loss or other financial hardships, can create food insecurities for families, especially during this time.

If your household is in need of food assistance, we encourage you to use the link immediately below to request support from our local food pantry, Mission Hope.

https://forms.gle/dwkV6LwSpSmCa8k58

Through this partnership, we can discreetly send a backpack filled with non-perishable food items home with your student.

Please know that all information submitted to Mission Hope remains confidential and will not be shared with the school or anyone outside of Mission Hope. We will only receive notification of which student needs a backpack. Our goal is to support our students and families in any way we can.

If you have any questions, would like further information, or need help with the application, please contact Ms. Julia at (951) 695-7320 ext. 24018; jcarrillo@tvusd.us.

Entendemos que hay situaciones inesperados, como la pérdida del empleo y otras dificultades financieras, pueden crear inseguridad alimentaria para las familias; especialmente durante este tiempo.

Si su hogar necesita asistencia alimentaria, le recomendamos que utilice el enlace abajo para solicitar apoyo de nuestra despensa de alimentos local, Mission Hope.

https://forms.gle/dwkV6LwSpSmCa8k58

A través de esta asociación, podemos enviar discretamente una mochila llena de alimentos (no perecederos) a casa con su estudiante.

Tenga en cuenta que toda la información enviada a Mission Hope permanece confidencial y no se compartirá con la escuela ni con nadie fuera de Mission Hope. Solo recibiremos una notificación de qué su estudiante necesita una mochila. Nuestro objetivo es apoyar a nuestros estudiantes y familias en todo lo que podamos.

Si tiene alguna pregunta, desea obtener más información o necesita ayuda con la solicitud, comuníquese con la Sra. Julia al (951) 695-7320 ext. 24018; jcarrillo@tvusd.us.

We know that a lot of our students ride a bike or ebike to school!

Please check out the NEW SAFETY GUIDELINES put out by our district office in coordination with local law enforcement. If your student is riding a bike to school this is a must read! There are different laws for each type of bike. Check out those rules linked above.

And, regardless of the type of bike, please know that all students under 18 MUST WEAR A HELMET! That's a good starting point for safety while on a bike! Please review the link above and talk with your student about safe biking to school!

Tips to Using the Video Doorbell

a) hold your ID card 2-3 inches from the screen

b) hold it steady so we can see it

c) Remember that there's a time lag...Hold the card there until you hear us buzz you in!

Students: If you come to the front door of the school and don't have a school ID, we'll be asking for you to get one as soon as you enter the school! It only takes a few minutes!! That will make it easier each time you need to be "buzzed in" through the video doorbell system!

Students may NOT order food to be delivered to school through Grub Hub, Door Dash, Uber Eats or any food delivery. If a parent brings food in, it can only be for their student and it must be left with the front office and the student may pick it up during lunch time only.

• Report Your Student's Absence To:
  

  951-294-6302 or email cavalos@tvusd.us

• Have a student that is having difficulty attending school? Would you like to talk with someone about that? Please speak with Julia Carrillo, our Student Support Specialist (pictured at left) by calling the main office number and asking to be transferred to her. Or, you can email her at jcarrillo@tvusd.us.

Ms. Yesenia Lopez is our Social Worker!! Ms. Yesenia works with all students at Sparkman Alternative Education Center--which includes, of course, Temecula Valley Adult School, Susan Nelson HS, and Rancho Vista HS! If you need assistance please let her know!
