Apple Valley High School (AVHS) is a public four-year high school located in Apple Valley, California, United States. It is a part of the Apple Valley Unified School District. Built in 1967, it was the only comprehensive high school in the Town of Apple Valley until 1999 when Granite Hills High School opened. The campus has expanded with growth and was modernized with local bond funds in 2002.
Along with academic and co-curricular offerings, students have access to the more traditional school program of clubs, student government and sports.




Mascot


The school's mascot, Sparky the SunDevil, has been the center of controversy for many years. Over the history of the school, the character of the SunDevil has increasingly become more cartoon-like, as parents were upset with the Satanic references.




Athletics
