At my time at spring valley I was able to complete high school and learn everything I needed to be prepared for college.

I have had a very good experience with Spring Valley High School. I have attended the school all 4 years of high school and I definitely believe that I am adequately prepared to continue my education in college.

The environment of the school is a tad lack luster, there isn't much student interaction in assemblies and sports games and making a move to change this would heighten the experience at the school.

The teachers are accommodating, kind, and willing to work with all students, as they genuinely care...

No wonder people have complained about the way these students get treated. You WILL be changing the dress code before this becomes a...

Horrible. Doesn’t seem like a good school at all.
