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.

Pojoaque Valley High School is a diverse and cultural place where students can openly express themselves through their beliefs and express their ideas that don't go unheard. Our teachers work hard to educate their students and ready us for the real world and it's challenges. Being a student at pojoaque means that not only your learning is being prioritized but also your mental and physical health. Reaching out to staff and counselors is always an option because of the support offered at my school. The parts that need work are our school lunches and generally more safety rules. No child should have to go to school in fear and Pojoaque is capable of preventing this if given the right resources.

Pojoaque Valley high School is like any other high school but everyone is close together since its a small school we all know each other and respect each other it's a nice school other than the Pricable who doesn't really seem like she likes the students and doesn't do anything to help the students.
