Verde Valley School (affectionately called VVS) is truly a unique place to learn at. The motto "IB + dirt" is apparent in all things done. The school feels more like a community learning together, where staff and students alike learn from one another. VVS offers the rare chance to speak with teachers on a daily basis, and makes the transition to colleges easier.
