IT IS TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK!
REGISTRATION PACKETS for 2021-22
Don’t forget to return your registration packet ASAP (the deadline was Friday) if you plan on attending Venture next fall. Secondary students need to fill out BOTH the reg packet and the course selection form.
Many of you are worried that the last page of the packet is asking for your annual update to be completed, unfortunately the annual update link will not be available for parents to make changes/updates until June 14th. Besides that hiccup please submit the rest of your packet to the dropbox outside of Ventures front door.
If your family is not going to return to Venture, please contact Kelly Estes, Registrar.
Thank you,
Dennice Barnes, Office Manager

The Run for Education is a 38 year tradition in the San Ramon Valley, and you don’t want to miss it! The run will be virtual this year, but we hope to bring back some of our traditional in-person activities on October 9 and 10, 2021, based on county guidelines.
The low registration price of $25 includes an SRVEF mask or cape! You can still order a shirt to keep your collection up to date, but orders need to be placed soon to guarantee delivery by September 1st.
This event will be a fundraiser for the San Ramon Valley Education Foundation and each school with 30% of registration net proceeds going directly to your school team chosen. Additionally, the Run for Education is setting up pledge pages for every participant that will allow schools to raise even more money with 70% of those donations going directly to the school.
