Message from the Principal
Welcome to Valley Vista High School!
I am honored and incredibly excited to serve as the Principal of this amazing school. Returning to the high school setting feels like coming full circle for me as it is where I began my career in education 28 years ago, and after years of leading other high schools, a K–8 and starting a middle school, it is truly a joy to be back. Valley Vista holds a special place in the community, and I’m proud to lead a campus that is committed to excellence in every way.
At Valley Vista, our mission is clear: to empower all learners to reach their full potential. We are grounded in the core values of Persistence, Respect, Integrity, Drive, and Excellence, which guide everything we do inside and outside of the classroom. These values are not just words; they are the foundation of our culture and the expectations we hold for every member of our school community.
As we prepare to welcome back our students, the energy on campus is already building, and we are looking forward to a fantastic school year filled with growth, achievement, and connection. Our staff is dedicated, our students are resilient, and together, we are ready to make this year one of the best yet.
Thank you for being part of the Valley Vista family. Let's make it a great year!
Alone, a drop; Together, a MONSOON! We are All In!
