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.

The experiences here are a little crazy but overall I still had fun and was able to learn a lot of stuff here and I would say the worst part is only how sometimes some people have threatened the school

I remember enjoying my time at Del Valle high school during my late junior and full senior year. The people were nice, but I especially liked how we had help with college.

My time at Del Valle was great, The best times were when I would perform for the band whether it was marching or just concerts as well as just socializing with friends. What made this school so great to me was how involved it was with everything. One of the worst parts of the experience was having to do standardized tests but they're for my benefit so I won't say anything bad about it.

The vast majority of teachers in this school go out of their way to ensure all students succeed. This school provides students with Chromebooks and all class materials so that students don't need to pay for them. Like any school Del Valle has its issues but by far and large this is a great school!
