Welcome VVS Alumni

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Verde Valley School alumni have been an integral part of the school since the first graduating class in 1951. Alumni are involved in the school's Field Trip program, have volunteered to share their talents and skills teaching Project Periods and have helped maintain the walkways, buildings and landscaping.

Each year, VVS alumni honor a colleague by bestowing the Warren Award to one or two alums who have distinguished themselves in either the work they've done in their communities, in the arts, and for their broader impact on the world. The award winners are announced at reunion weekend each year.

Reunion Weekend is a time to gather at VVS, to share stories and catch-up. It's a time to meet new people as well - to network and learn from other VVS alumni.

The Reunion Weekend includes fund-raisers that support scholarships for current students. Your participation in any fund-raising effort is key to the success of the school's ability to maintain diversity - economic, ethnic, and international - at the school.

We encourage you to become a friend of VVS on Facebook, and form class groups so that you can keep in touch, share photos, and reconnect with classmates.

We welcome your news and stories! If you'd like to send us a submission for this site, you can upload photos and text here.

If you have any questions, comments, or just want to let us know your good news, please call 928-284-2272 or email alumni@vvsaz.org. You can also submit news and photos here.
