Acquisition of All Sports & Project Graduation –

Del Val High School will no longer be handling the activities account for the individual sport programs. The funds that remained in their accounts have been turned over to the Booster Club and allocated appropriately to each sporting team as outlined by Daria Wasserbach, school board secretary. Therefore, in the future, all monetary transactions will be handled through the Booster Club.

Project Graduation will be working with the Booster Club to keep the tradition alive!
