Welcome VVS Alumni!

Welcome to the new alumni section of the VVS website. The former alumni community website was dismantled recently, and we have saved all the content it. Since there are no logins required for this VVS web site, we will not publish or upload any personal information we saved from the community site's database. 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.

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. They 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 on everyone's news. It's a time to meet new people as well - to network and learn from other VVS alumni.

The Reunion Weekend includes two fund-raisers that supports scholarships for current students: a Gourmet Wine Dinner and a Silent Auction. 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.

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.
