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.

It has made me academically motivated through challenging myself in each subject, but the teachers and staff are very involved in creating a better environment each day. There is plenty of diversity and acceptance throughout the school. Sometimes, coursework does come with much rigor.

Blue Valley West in terms of academics is a great school with good teachers that prepare you for everything. Sports teams are alright and the facilities are actually pretty impressive. The administration is a little bit too strict at times however this is an overall great school
