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.

Valley View High School is a school with great character. Located in the more eastern part of Jonesboro, Arkansas students have been able to flourish through their academic years at Valley View. The school overall does not have a great record in funding the art, theatre, science, and cte programs.

I went to Valley View Schools since pre-k and have enjoyed every moment. While there were a few teachers I did not like, they also had some of the most outstanding teachers in Arkansas. I am prepared for college, but I also believe that there could have been more academic freedom for us. While our sports are known as some of the best in 5A, participating in different school activities has made it fun. I know that we are one of the least funded schools in the state, so I think that they could try to find different ways to help the safety of our school if they would try and ask the governor.

Valley View was really a great school. Very organized as a whole and always clean. I really feel like my classes, especially my senior year prepared me for college. There are a few teacher I had who really made an impact on me, both in my interests and my work ethic.

This last year was a nightmare. I knew going in my child was behind but I had no idea the school would try to suggest she had a disability. To which she doesn't. Because she was behind the school was fine with putting her in special education classes she didn't need. This school is clearly over iden...

As a parent of one student who is graduating and another who is still in high school, I can say we are very pleased with the choice we made to send our children here 7 years ago. We used this site to help make our school decision when we moved to Jonesboro from out of state. It represented Valley Vi...
