GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Over the years at Valley Heights has been an up and down. Most of the teacher here goes by last name.

I had a great high school experience through sports and academics. I have made many friends and made a lot of relationships.
4.0 Senior

It is a fairly small school in a rural setting, placed between the towns of Waterville and Blue Rapids. The classes are small and compact, making more time for teachers to work with students independently and improve their chances of success. The teachers care for the students and truly wish for their success.
