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.

Virgin Valley High School is a mediocre school; People are typically friendly and the education is alright. For the size of the school, a wide variety of courses can be taken to meet a student's academic requirements for college. Something that I would like to see in the future are more AP classes.
