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.

The best part about attending Valencia High School was the sheer scale of options you had to chose from. If there's something you want to take, the school either has the class, or a way to sign you up for that class at a college. The worst parts for me personally was getting through all these options without external aid or guidance from those more experienced as I didn't interact much with the staff. I would like to see a few more simple posts on websites or counselor meetings to help better decide what I want to do know and in the future.

The campus isn't the cleanest, over my time at the school it's gotten better at being presentable. The sports are good, I've heard some of the coaches are mean and have made people quit. The administrators are nice and welcoming to the students, they walk around and talk. The teacher's are nice and helpful aswell.
