Bell Schedule

Scotts Valley High School (SVHS) operates on a block schedule on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday with a short all-period day on Wednesday. The bell schedule changes to accommodate public holidays, testing, assemblies and rallies. The school calendar on the homepage indicates the bell schedule on any given day.

Also, please use school calendar for dates for schedules or events such as Winter & Spring Finals, CAHSEE Testing, and Assemblies or Rallies.

Please Note: SVHS is a CLOSED CAMPUS. This means that students are not allowed to leave campus during school hours, including when a student has a period with no class in between two other scheduled classes. Leaving campus without permission and approval from the administration will result in consequences.
