WHAT’S HAPPENING Right Nowat SVC?

Classes are being held as scheduled.

We’re still holding classes at SVC, but they’re online for the time being. You’ll have the same awesome instructors and the same small classes for lots of personal attention.

SVC is planning to start Spring Quarter classes on time, beginning the week of March 30th. Classes will be held via video conference until we can transition back to in-person teaching.

We’re all doing just fine here at SVC, with no students, staff, or instructors reporting any coronavirus infection. We hope you’ll take good care of yourself and stay healthy, too.
