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 overall experience with Virgin Valley High School is decent. The school itself could benefit from stronger academic teaching. The teachers are good and seem to care well about the students. I would like to see more school spirit and having to include the whole student body in the majority of events.

After attending all four years at VVHS, I couldn't ask for a better school to be apart of. The teachers at this school are some of the most caring ever, and their teaching is just as good. The school offers a wide variety of electives as well as after school activities. The students, especially the student council, are also always actively involved in any events the school does.

I am a senior at Virgin Valley High School. Overall, I really do like this school, it may not be as good or as big as some major schools in Las Vegas or other cities, but it is a pretty good school. The teachers are all nice and are always willing to help out students at any time, there's after-school tutoring for students who need it, and some of our sports teams do really well every year.

My school is not a necessarily the best school in the world. I think the staff is very biased and though it's great to encourage students to participate in school activities, I think that the students who don't are looked down upon. Though it's understandable to reward students who excel in activiti...
