To me Spring Vally High is a supporting place for most individuals. The administration team for the most part is great, classes is excellent. I had joined the magnet program for 2 years and the classes are very heavy in math science. The teachers are very supportive at the school too. There has never been a school I'v been to that has been as supportive as SVH has been to me.

I loved being at Spring Valley although I was only there for my senior year. Since I experienced two other high schools, id have to say Spring Valley had the most resources and flexibility that made the experience fun. The classes were interactive and well equipped. The culture stayed fun and unpredictable. I really liked that as a senior you got to leave out earlier than everyone else.

Over my 4 years at Spring Valley it has been up and down. I've had great teachers who helped me a lot and taught me well while I had others who were difficult to work with and didn't explain the material well and this was seen across the entire class. 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 kids there are not very nice and constantly will harass others some racism in constant fights

Both of my children attended all four years Spring Valley. The opportunities are endless! They can choose from basic CP classes to a wide array of AP courses depending on what best suits their needs. The teachers are accommodating, kind, and willing to work with all students, as they genuinely care...

Wish I could rate it lower. I have never seen a dress code so outdated and borderline sexist. If a girl cannot wear dress code approved shorts, then what's the point? 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.
