Summer in the Valley 2025!

Happy Summer High School Families! 
The dust has settled on another successful school year in the Valley! Still, the high school is buzzing with sports camps, summer practices and football plays today in their first jamboree down in Anacortes.  Before we get too far into summer, I just wanted to share a few important details:

Student Personal Electronic Device Guidelines 25/26 School Year
Over the course of the year, the district has engaged staff, students, families, and the Board in thoughtful discussion regarding cell phone use at the high school level. Based on this process, we can now confirm that cell phones will not be permitted for use during class time in the high school beginning in the 2025–26 school year. Phones must remain off and stored in backpacks/bags or may be collected by teachers as is current practice. 

 The final element under consideration is whether students at the high school will be allowed limited access to their phones during non-instructional times—specifically during passing periods and lunch. The Board will discuss this aspect of the policy at its June 26 meeting and will make a final determination during the July 17 meeting. 

NVHS office will open in August starting on Monday, August 18, 7:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. daily.
