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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Valley has been amazing for me. I used to go to Rother Elementary in CA and didn't enjoy my time at all. I was never included, bullied, and always singled out. However, when I moved to Valley in AR, I felt like, I had finally belonged. There is tons of stucc to do, the academics are phenomenal, and the teachers are extraordinary. These last 7 years at Valley have been amazing and I've learned so much. I've also made many, many friends. Valley springs is The Best school in Arkansas, and possibly the world.
