Amador Valley High School is a public high school in Pleasanton, California, a city east of San Francisco. Amador Valley is one of three high schools in the Pleasanton Unified School District, which includes Foothill High School and Village High School. The school was founded as Amador Valley Joint Union High School and opened in 1922. Major construction and renovations were undertaken after district voters approved bonds in 1922, 1965, 1997, and 2016. The school has been named a California Distinguished School and a National Blue Ribbon School. As of 2020, Amador Valley offers its 2,700 students 26 varsity sports, 24 Advanced Placement courses, and vocational training. Student groups, including the Marching Band and Math Team, have toured out-of-state after achieving high rankings in Californian competitions. The Amador Theater, one of Pleasanton's performing arts facilities, has been hosted at the high school since 1932. (Full article...)

  • Promoted: November 24, 2009, "Satisfactory" at URFA/2020 on March 21, 2021
  • Reasons for nomination: 2022 is the school's 100th anniversary of its opening. Schools are underrepresented at TFA, and since October doesn't have many TFA requests this might be a good selection. This would be a TFA rerun from 2012. Blurb is edited from its 2012 TFA run, and I checked to ensure the information was still in the article.
