Reunion Weekend ’22

For the first time in three years, Fountain Valley School reveled in a live and in-person Reunion Weekend in June. Events included a reception for outgoing Head of School Will Webb, a 50th anniversary reception for the class of ’7072, a memorial program, and the annual alumni dinner and awards ceremony. Friends of Fountain Valley who gathered to dine, dance and honor their community also raised a glass to a return to normalcy for students, faculty and staff during the 202122 school year. Careful management of COVID outbreaks meant the campus was quarantine-free for the first time in two years. And that meant traditional campus events were back in full swing. This year, FVS was able to bring back Rally Points, Stupid Night Out, Lunar New Year, Club Frautschi, Ski Weekend, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Black History Month Celebrations, Unity Day and Earth Day. Out-of-state Interim trips returned, along with Global Scholar diploma and Capstone presentations and the Spring Formal. And as the school year drew to a close, we celebrated our seniors with Senior Skip Day at Six Flags Elitch Gardens in Denver and Senior Seminar at the Mountain Campus. The School also hosted art shows in the fall and spring, a First Friday event at Cultivate Studios in Colorado Springs for senior advanced fine art portfolio students, and three seasons of plays: the Fall Comedy (The 39 Steps), the Winter Musical (Urinetown) and the Spring Comedy (Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind). Plus, our musicians and choristers treated us to a wonderful concert to close out the year. Congratulations to all students, alumni, faculty, staff, friends and family of Fountain Valley for a highly successful 2021-22 school year!
