Golden Valley High School is a high school in the William S. Hart Union High School District in the community of Newhall, California located in Santa Clarita, California. The school first opened in 2004. The student population is approximately 2500 in grades 9 through 12. The first class graduated in 2007.

Academics

Golden Valley offers academic programs with emphasis on preparation for higher education. All preparatory courses required by the University of California and many other institutions of higher learning are offered. The school contains several different clubs and learning organizations established to aid preparation for college, such as the National Honors Society (3.5 GPA and above), Key Club, and others. Twelve Honors Scholars graduated from the school in 2007, with over 30 scheduled to graduate in 2008. To be an honors scholar one must maintain a 4.0 GPA or above by the end of senior year. AP scores were superb for many of the students at the school, both honors scholars and not. This countered the anti-Golden Valley sentiment around the district, as many schools saw no opportunity for Golden Valley to shine academically--so far.

Athletics

Golden Valley is a fairly new school competing in a very competitive Foothill League. It may take a few more years to build confidence and depth in players. But is known for its football team having a repetitive losing streak against West Ranch High School.
