Incoming Freshmen

Scheduling for Current PVPUSD 8th Graders

The incoming PVHS Freshmen Parent Presentation is Tuesday, March 24, 2026 at 6:00PM
The first part of the evening is a presentation in the MPR introducing the PVHS administration, Activities Director, Athletic Director, College & Career Center staff, and our PTSA and Booster Club members. Following this is a presentation by your student's counselor covering information regarding the scheduling process, special program offerings at PVHS, how to get involved on campus and more. 

If you are unable to join us on March 24, the slide deck is posted here for your review. 

Counselors will be holding Orientations with our incoming 9th grade students from within our district during the week of March 3, 2026, and will be organized through their current PVPUSD Intermediate School. During these orientations, 8th grade students will receive their course recommendations for 9th grade, the 2025-2026 Educational Planning Guide, and the 2025-2026 Course Description Handbook

MIS: Tuesday, March 3
RIS: Wednesday, March 4  
PVIS: Thursday, March 5

Additionally, students will bring home a 9th Grade Academic Planning Worksheet. The information presented at the parent and student presentations, along with current teacher recommendations, will assist your family in making these course selections. During the week of March 9, your student will have an individual meeting with their school counselor during a designated class period. This will give your student an opportunity to meet their high school counselor, review their course selections, and ask any additional questions. Individual student scheduling meetings will be scheduled as follows:

MIS: Monday, March 9
RIS: Wednesday, March 11
PVIS: Friday, March 13

Scheduling for PVDLA, Private School, and New or Returning Students

If you are new to our district or re-enrolling after time away, you will need to complete the online enrollment through the District website. Once that has been submitted please contact PVHS Registrar, Karen Mills, at [email protected] to make an appointment for in-person enrollment. Appointments with your student's counselor for course scheduling will be provided by the registrar in late March. 

 

PVDLA students who are enrolling at PVHS for 9th grade may also contact the registrar for information on course scheduling with the counselor.
