I transferred to Valley Forge after Parma senior high got demolished, I would have to say that Valley Forge lacks some of the culture and spirit that Parma senior high had, but was still great. The teachers really are great at what they do and are willing to help out students who need it.

Overall, I believe that the environment at Valley Forge is really welcoming to all people and there are plenty of opportunities to thrive. Whether athletic, social, or more academic based, there is no lack of individuals with the same interests as you and you tend to fit in rather quickly. I am happy to say that I have made many good friends in my few short years here and I plan to keep them in my life forever :)
