The César E. Chávez Learning Academies, also known as Valley Region High School 5 (VRHS #5), is a public high school of the Los Angeles Unified School District. It is located in the City of San Fernando in the San Fernando Valley region of the Los Angeles metropolitan area, in the US state of California. It is named after César Chávez.

The school opened in 2011, relieving overcrowding at San Fernando High School, Sylmar High School, Kennedy High School, and Verdugo Hills High School.[1] When the school opened it had 1,600 students. Its design was based on historical California missions.[2] The school campus is divided into four academies: Technology Prep Academy, ArTES, Social Justice Humanitas Academy, and San Fernando Academy of Scientific Exploration (ASE).
