Alta Vista Variety Show 2025
The Alta Vista annual variety show is around the corner! Come share your talent! Do you sing, dance, or play an instrument? How about a magic trick, recite a poem, walk us through your latest creation? Or would you surprise us and create a fun act with your friends? Be original! Open to ALL Alta Vista students grades TK - 5. Performance time is limited to 1 minute 30 seconds.
- Register: Friday, February 7th, by end of day
- Audition date: Wednesday, Feb 12th starting at 4pm in the Cafeteria
- Practice date: Wednesday, Feb 26th starting at 4pm in the Cafeteria

All children who audition will be in the show. Parents should fill out the audition form for each child participating by Friday, February 7th, here: Variety Show Registration Form.
After you complete the audition form, you will be directed to a link to sign up for an audition time slot for your act. If an act includes more than one student, only one person needs to sign up for an audition time slot, but each person in the act should complete the registration form above. Sign up time slots for Audition
You will audition during the time slot chosen, in the order you appear on the signup. Students must have an adult supervising them at all times during the audition and rehearsal.
We ask due to limited space only friends/family of the participants attend the event. We can’t make this show happen without the help of parent volunteers. There are options to help before, during, and after the show is over. Please sign up here: Donations & Volunteers

Save the Date: Spring Online Auction Starts March 6th
Our auction committee is busy working behind the scenes to get ready for our Spring Auction starting March 6, 2025! If any Alta Vista families or extended families have vacation rentals, timeshares, or are season ticket holders to any sporting events, please consider making a donation to our auction this year. Historically a weekend getaway to a vacation house or timeshare perform very well in the auction as do tickets to local pro team games such as the 49ers, SF Giants, Sharks, Earthquakes, and Warriors. Also, if we have anyone who is a wine club member at a local winery, please consider asking your winery if they would be willing to donate. Lastly, if any families are willing to host an event, this is another great way to help raise money for the school. Some past family hosted events are:
- Moms and Margaritas
- Mom’s Brunch (Mimosa’s and Indian Food)
- Poker Night
- Mediterranean Hosted Dinner
- Bros, Beers, & BBQ (Dad’s Event)
- Family friendly BBQs
- Dandiya Night
- Yoga and Yummy Treats Party
Please contact avhscfundraising@gmail.com for any questions or to make an auction donation.
