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.

Central Valley Academy is a school with a lot of promise. It can aid many students in obtaining the future they want if they are willing to put in the effort. They offer many electives and classes that students can choose from themselves. The facilities for athletics are incredibly advanced and well catered to the athlete at Central Valley Academy. Academically a lot can be learned here if the effort is put in.
