Mission & Philosophy

About Us

CV Guarantees represent the learning standards that each class at Central Valley High School “guarantees” your student will learn.  Our staff has "drilled down" the state standards to focus on learning objectives and specify exactly what each student should know upon finishing a course. CVHS teachers work incredibly hard to ensure our students receive an aligned curriculum that will not only set them up for success this year but in future courses at Central Valley.  Please review our courses to find out more about our "CV Guarantees!"

California’s Summer EBT

California’s Summer EBT program, known as SUN Bucks, is returning in 2025. This food program provides families $40 per month for food in June, July, and August ($120 total) when children do not have access to school meals. 

Most children who qualify for free or reduced-price school meals, or get CalFresh, CalWORKs, and/or Medi-Cal, are automatically enrolled. Children in foster care, experiencing homelessness, attending Head Start, and/or are considered a runaway are also categorically eligible and are automatically enrolled. Some children may need to sign up. Participating in SUN Bucks does not affect a family’s immigration status.
