The best part about Loudoun Valley is the opportunities given to us that we wouldn't be able to receive at other schools. I also like the people that go here and the teachers. My main issue would be with the administration and the way the students are handled by them.

I truly think a place can be good based on what people make of it. The people made valley a place that I didnt want to show up to everyday and simply a toxic environment.

At my school, I enjoy meeting different people and learning from my teachers. We aren't the most diverse school, but since we are adding the IB program that should change. We have some great teachers but also have some that don't teach the way students think they should. Our school is mostly clean, but we are very outdated since we are one of the oldest schools in our county. I would like to see an improvement in our school lunches and maybe update some of our learning equipment.

The principal is useless and not involved in student life at all. Locked up in her office all day long and does not come out. Dangerous school with drugs literally everywhere.

While I did say some negative things about this school, honestly most of the teachers, students, and administration here do have their heart in the right place. All we need is a little restructuring.
