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.

I've been at Veterans for all four years and boy has it been a ride. From the end of covid as a freshman now to watching the sunrise as a senior it has been a ride. The school has a vast amount of AP options and career oriented extra curriculars for potential students and truly pushes to set excellence as the standard. If only they applied that to the football team. Yet this school still stands its ground as an academic institute.

They have good teachers for the "higher up" classes but they don't for the regular ed classes. This causes to much separation between students relationships.

If you like drugs, fights, bullying, ineffective staff and faculty, arrogant people and being treated like you’re an inconvenience, then this is the place for you! If you try to address anything you’re patronized and they try to explain how you just don’t understand. The mystique surrounding this pl...
