The Pleasant Valley Educational Foundation held it's first of two scholarship awards nights on May 11. Congratulations to the 69 students who earned scholarships. More to come next week!
On May 18, the PVEF will honor another 60 students for a total of 129 scholarships awarded to the class of 2022. Since 1990, the PVEF has awarded more than $1 million in scholarships to graduating seniors. Enjoy the pictures below!
We are grateful for the thousands of donors who have chosen to invest in our students' futures, especially those with us tonight who have endowed a scholarship in the name of a loved one, family, or business. The PVEF is forever grateful for your commitment to PVCSD students. It is an honor to have each of you involved in this program and to be able to carry on your family legacies.
To our graduates: Thank you for your dedication to your education and to this district. PVEF is so proud of your hard work and this community cannot wait to see what you achieve in your future.
