We sent our son to Valleywood, even though it was not our "home" school. The staff is supportive, involved and clearly has a good understanding of how to teach and involve their middle school students in learning. My son loved his middle school experience. I think that speaks highly of his teachers!...

As a parent of 2 Valleywood alumni and 1 current student I have only good things to say about this school. Caring teachers and administrators, great offerings and an incredibly diverse student body. Love it.
