Valencia High School in Placentia, California, was established in 1933. The high school originally shared buildings with Bradford Avenue Elementary School until 1964, when Bradford Elementary closed and Valencia High School became the sole occupant of the campus property. Until 1967, when El Dorado High School was built, Valencia was Placentia's only high school. Valencia High School is located at 500 North Bradford Avenue; coordinates 33.87622,-117.86929. Roy Leon Tillery was the first VHS graduate, as the only member of the Senior Class of 1933-34. At the June 12, 1934, graduation ceremony, Tillery was treated to the address "Who Are Educated?" by Vierling Kersey, State Superintendent of Public Instruction. Tillery served as the student speaker (as well as class valedictorian); and was presented with diploma #1. Many of Valencia's buildings, including the auditorium and cafeteria, were built during the Depression by the WPA. Today the school serves a student body of approximately 2,500 students. It is one of four high schools in the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District. Beginning in the summer of 2010, Valencia underwent a series of renovations and construction projects, including a new 17-classroom building, modernized school breezeway and administration building, and new bleachers at Bradford Stadium. A modernized "quad" was also among the list of projects, serving as a center of campus life and a common location of school activities. Funding for these improvements was provided by Measure A, which was approved by local voters in 2008.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Measure A )〕 The school's mascot is the Tiger, and its team colors are blue and gold. Valencia's first IB class graduated in 2006. ==Academic Decathlon== The 2008-2009 Academic Decathlon team was the first Valencia team to make it to the State round of competition, taking First Place in Orange County. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Valencia High School (Placentia, California)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
