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.

My high school experience has been overall good. My teachers have been encouraging and helpful. Our facilities and classes are high-tech and resourceful. We have access to most things we need as well as good opportunities to better ourselves through sports and academics. I feel like I have grown positively as a person through the years I have spent at Valley High School and I am grateful for everything I have been provided with.
