Crimson Regiment Band and Guard

The Crimson Regiment marching band has made notable achievements in the past, such as: placing 3rd in the 1999 WBA Championships in the 5A (the highest class) and taking Sweepstakes in both the parade and field show competition at the 2000 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. The program underwent changes after the 1999–2000 season. The Crimson Regiment also performed at 2004 Nokia Sugar Bowl. The Crimson Regiment won the title of AAA Champions in the WBA circuit in 2004.

More recently, this award-winning band has been recovering from decline. Membership has slowly increased, and the band now competes at an AA class competitive level. After a four-year hiatus, the band has started production of marching field shows under the direction of Loren Gamarra with "Nightwatch." They performed their show titled "In The Grid" and their 2016-2017 show was titled "Let's Dance" in the 2015–2016 season.[1][2] 2017-2018 show was titled "Impressions"

Regional Occupancy Program

Valley View High School also has a notable R.O.P (Regional Occupancy Program) Floral class that has been on the campus for many years and has started the Eco Club program, which has collected cans and bottles and donated the money from the bottles to children in Africa.
