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 here for years. The teachers are very nice and helpful. The students will take some getting used to. Overall a very nice school that gives very good advice and education.

Before going to Valley, I went to a school where I felt very unhappy. I felt like the teachers didn't care enough and a lot of the students gave off negative vibes. But when I transferred to Valley High School, I felt very welcomed. Personally, I'm a shy person but a lot of my teacher made me feel like I belonged and by twelfth grade year, I got out of my shell and I'm very comfortable with the school I go to.

Mi hija estudia allí. Esta sufriendo de bullying ahora mismo y nadie hace nada. Yo no quería esta escuela para mi hija pero le tocó por la zona... Los niveles académicos son pésimos, realmente no hacen nada.

Although this school has many students who don't take school seriously, the education status and athletics, as well as the general environment makes it well worth coming to this school. The statistics of the school are not representations of the school.
