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.

I have enjoyed my experience at Central Valley High School. It has been a very welcoming school with a safe and supportive environment. The activities at the school have given me many new opportunities and experiences. I have made many friends and met many amazing teachers. I'm glad to be apart of the community and to be a Central Valley Bear.

Central Valley High School is a school that focuses on growth. Success and failure are measured on the same level as long as you can grow from either. It is also a place of acceptance and diversity. It celebrates not only the individual achievements of each student, but the collective efforts of teams, groups, clubs, and even the student and staff bodies as a whole.
