Video Update
We’re three years into our High School program, check out some of what our students have been up to! Wherever possible we pair real world learning with classroom learning because hands-on, real-world experiences increase learning retention. In this video you will also see Student Association activities, varsity and JV sports, music, and visits to college campuses.
This spring our Freshmen and Sophomores are headed to Los Angeles and will study art at The Getty and visit NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory among other things. Juniors are headed to Boston, Philadelphia, Gettysburg, and Washington DC for their US History trip. Lots of great learning happening!

Home & School Service Hours Reminder
TVA asks each family to actively participate in school life by contributing 20 service hours per family each year (10 for single-parent and preschool families). These volunteer hours help make sure the school has the resources we need to host important school and community events, support our teachers throughout the year, and maximize any funds we raise.
Home and School Association coordinates and tracks each family’s required service hours, and will provide quarterly status reports to parents. If parents are unable to contribute volunteer hours, there is an option to pay $10 per required service hour instead.

Inclement Weather
Procedures for Inclement Weather
We attempt to make the best decision possible during inclement weather. We primarily follow the Hillsboro School District for most late starts and school closures, but we also take into account that we have families and staff that live in various parts of the west Portland metro area (Hillsboro, Beaverton, Portland, Cornelius, Forest Grove).
There will be times when there is not a late start or a school closure. We trust that you will make the best judgment for you and your family's safety based on the conditions of the roads around you.
We will notify you about late starts or school closures by:
1. Sending a notification/email through the Enhanced Parent Communication through Teacher Ease. You will receive a text message if you have set this up on your Teacher Ease account. If you have not yet done this, please follow the instructions on this video. This will be the quickest way to receive messages since we are no longer subscribing to Flash Alert.

3. Posting on our school website.
4. Posting a message on our school's social media pages (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter)
5. Teachers will send you message on Remind. Please make sure you have subscribed to their group.
Late Starts
In case of a late start, school will start at 10:15 AM. Doors will open at 10:00AM. BASE will open at 8:00AM. Hot lunch will be available. We will send a notification between 5:30AM and 6:00AM. If we are looking at a late start on a Friday, we will have a closure instead since we have an early release/dismissal on Fridays.
Always feel free to make the best call for you and your family. There is no need to rush to get to school. Driving slowly and safely takes precedence.
School Closures
We do not always know the night before if there will be a school closure the next day. When we can, we will strive to make the decisions the night before, however, this is not always possible.
Fun Run
Please save the date for our Fun Run and Color Battle! We are raising funds for the playground.
The elementary grades (Preschool to 5th Grade) will be participating in the Fun Run fundraiser from March 31 to April 11.
The upper grades, 6th to high school, will be participating in the Color Battle from March 31 to Aprill.
The Color Battle is on April 10. The Fun Run is on April 11.
This is right after Spring Break!
