If your student is going to be absent for the entire day please call the 24-Hour Absence Line. DO NOT LEAVE REQUESTS FOR EARLY OUTS ON THE ABSENCE LINE! This is a voicemail service that does not ring in the office; your request may not be heard until much later in the day. It is our desire at Capistrano Valley High School that students attend classes regularly and have a successful year.

Students currently within the Capistrano Unified School District boundaries will need to complete an open enrollment application. Students who are currently outside of CUSD boundaries will need to complete an OC Interdistrict transfer application first and then an open enrollment application. We are happy to answer any questions you have or walk you through the process step by step.

CUSD sends its messages through an application called SchoolMessenger which is linked to the District database. Parents of students registered to a specific school should not sign up for this service as doing so will result in double messaging. No further action is required to ensure the continuity of messages received.

If you have already purchased a planner, bring your student ID to the Cougar Den to pick it up. The Capistrano Valley High School PTSA sponsors programs, projects, fund raisers, awards, gifts and other activities that benefit all of our students. This could not be possible without the great support of our volunteers who donate their time and / or money.
