Welcome to MONTGOMERY HIGH SCHOOL
Welcome to the Montgomery High School website. Our school is located in Santa Rosa , California and we are an International Baccalaureate High School.
We are one of five comprehensive high schools in the Santa Rosa City School District. We have approximately 1900 students with 120 staff members. Our school is known for its strong academics, extra-curricular offerings, and strong scholar-athletic teams. We believe in relationships, relevance, and rigor. We strive to know our students well, have challenging curriculum that is relevant to the world we live in, and support each student to stretch his or her capabilities so that each student has expanded choices after high school. We are the Montgomery High School family, which includes staff and alumni since our opening in 1958. The Viking tradition continues to provide a strong high school experience for youth. GO VIKINGS!

CALIFORNIA SCHOLARSHIP FEDERATION
The California Scholarship Federation is an honor society based upon academic achievement. Members are not recruited. Rather, students apply after they have completed a semester. Students may file an application at any time during the entire month of September to gain eligibility from their spring semester grades. Students may file an application at any time during the entire month of February to gain eligibility from their fall semester grades. Each applicant must obtain an application from either Mrs. Butler (in Room 52) or Mrs. O'Meara in the Counseling Office or the Counseling Office. The applicant may also download the application from the Montgomery website. The application form publishes all of the information to determine eligibility. Sealbearers (or Lifetime Members) must have been a member for four semesters, one of which must be during the 12 th -grade year. Ninth graders are not eligible. 10 th -graders are eligible only after the fall semester.
ADVISORS: Ann Butler & Joanne O'Meara

Senior Parent Ads – Due Friday, September 30 th , 2011
More information and an order form for senior parent ads are here. Order forms are available on campus as well. We encourage you to sustain this wonderful tradition, and take advantage of the enduring forum the yearbook presents to tell your senior how you feel about him or her.
Senior Portraits - Due Friday, October 28th, 2011
You may use any photographer you choose. We encourage you to schedule your session as soon as possible, to ensure that your photo will be completed in time for inclusion in the yearbook. You should clearly determine with your photographer who is responsible for submitting the photo to the yearbook. We do accept non-traditional or amateur portraits, but we reserve the right to request an alternate photo if we deem a submission inappropriate or of insufficient photographic quality.
New This Year: In the interest of presenting every senior, if you do not submit a senior portrait, we will include your senior ID photo in the senior section.
Senior portraits are due in to the yearbook by Friday, October 28th, 2011 . Please spell your name exactly how you want it to appear in the yearbook when you submit your portrait. Write your name on the back of any hard copies submitted, and on any CDs submitted. If emailed, be sure to name the photo “last name, first name.” We do accept non-traditional portraits, but we reserve the right to request an alternate photo if we deem a submission inappropriate. All school guidelines regarding unacceptable drug, alcohol, sexual, or gang-related content should be followed. Portraits may be cropped by Yearbook, especially those that feature more than the student's face. You are welcome to include preferences for cropping when you submit your portrait.
You may submit portraits 3 ways: 1) Online, as an attached JPEG, to montyportraits@gmail.com . 2) As a JPEG on a clearly labeled CD. 3) As a traditional hard copy photo printed from a film negative, not from a digital file. Photos embedded in Word documents are useless – please do not submit these. If submitted online or on a CD, JPEGS should be 300 dpi for a wallet size (approximately 2.5 x 3.5 inches) photo. (A rough rule of thumb is that photo files should be at least 100KB or bigger.) All photos should be oriented vertically. Formal portraits should follow these guidelines:
• Wallet size (larger is okay, but not necessary)
• Head size approximately 1 ¼ inch
• Color
Courtesy of Mr. Chuck Honek, professional photographer, we will provide free yearbook-only photo sessions for those students who do not purchase a senior portrait. Scheduling information for this will be posted in the fall. Between professional portraits, our free portrait sessions, and the school ID photos, we want every senior in the senior section!
Business Ads – Due Friday, October 28th, 2011
If you are interested in placing an ad for your business, these too are due in October. Please call the yearbook in the fall for more information on rates, etc.
As always, the Valhal staff thanks you for your support, and hopes you have a great year.
Mr. Steve Forrest, Adviser
