River Valley High School (Also known as RVHS) is a public high school located in Yuba City, California. It was founded in 2005, and has grades 9-12.[2]

2022 ‘Slave Auction’ video

On October 3, 2022, a prank video was created inside of the football locker room of the school’s football players pretending to ‘auction off’ their black teammates.[3] Because of this shocking and disturbing event, these players were suspended and the varsity season was cancelled.

History

The school, the second high school in the city after Yuba City High School, was built due to Measure SS, a $30.6 million bond measure which was approved by local voters in 1999.[4]
