Alumni
The Radonich family and Los Gatos Roof have been long time supporters of VCS. Beginning in the mid-90’s with the formation of Café Valle at the home football games, the family began providing resources to grill and serve the now “famous” tri-tip sandwiches. In addition to this, their generous financial support of the annual VCS Golf Classic carries on to this day, and we are so thankful for their ongoing support. Cameron, class of 1998 and son of Gary and Janet is currently the marketing director for Los Gatos Roofing, the family business, and resides in San Jose with his wife, Katie, their two children. Cameron, as an alum of Valley Christian, has continued to carry the legacy of giving back to support the mission and programs of VCS. Thank you Radonich family for your support of Valley Christian!
The 2015-2016 year was a strong one for the Valley Christian Schools Alumni community ranging from a Homecoming victory in football, with hundreds of alumni on hand, to the VCS Golf Classic, to welcoming 321 new graduates into our alumni family. At the start of the 2015-2016 school year, there were 47 alumni working at VCS as a full-time faculty or staff member. We have teachers teaching in the very classrooms that they were learning in not even a decade ago. There are marketers, coaches, music instructors, trainers, missionaries, and program directors giving back at the place that helped in the formation of the person that they are today. Our alumni engagement and involvement has grown immensely in the last year and, as a result, the foundation is being laid on campus. Students are seeing alumni come back to visit and tell them all about life after high school and how to be better prepared to get into the schools and, eventually, industries that they are aiming for. One of the highlights of the year was the annual College and Career Day. In November, we had 45 alumni return to VCS to share and participate in this exciting new tradition. Current alumni in college came to represent some of the best colleges in the nation and professionals from some of the most respected corporations and professions were on hand to share their stories. Our social media following has grown tenfold as this has become an incredibly important part of our engagement strategy.
Finally, in May, we hosted the 22nd Annual VCS Golf Classic at the beautiful Silver Creek Valley Country Club. We had alumni, alumni parents, current parents, friends of the school, teachers and staff, and even a few student-athletes participate in this great tradition at VCS. The Quest for Excellence was on full display (maybe not in the golf itself) through the outpouring of support for Valley Christian Schools through the WARRIOR FUND.
Thank you to all who continue to support the mission of Valley Christian Schools!
