There's a lot going on in Altar Valley. Our District News page will give you a taste of why we are so proud of our students, our teachers, and our community.

On Tuesday, November 2, a special election will be held in the Altar Valley Elementary School District. Registered voters will have the opportunity to help decide an important financial matter for the school district. Altar Valley Elementary District will ask the district's registered voters to authorize a 5% Maintenance and Operations Override to fund special programs for students in preschool through eighth grade. For more information, please read our special programs pamphlet or read our frequently asked questions.

This year there is something new at our schools. We have created new Family Resource Rooms at Robles Elementary and Altar Valley Middle School. At Robles it is the room between the Library and the Computer Lab in the East Building. At the middle school it is Room 5 in the building behind the Front Office.

Beginning September 7th, Tuesday nights are Family Workshop Nights. These events run from 6:00-8:00 p.m. and are both fun and informative. For more information, click on the appropriate links below.
