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.

One thing I like about Velva Public School is how connected everyone is. We are a small enough school that everyone knows everyone and people are able to come together if needed and are very supportive of each other.

Very good school in terms of sports and academics, I have been going here since my kindergarten year. Lots to do with different clubs they have too. Although I do feel like they have not been preparing us lately with enough information on college readiness.

I have been going to school in Velva since Kindergarten, and as far as I know it is one of the best schools out there. The teachers are all extremely nice and are willing to help you in any way possible. I do have to say Velva's lunch program has been getting worse and worse. Many students are simply just not eating lunch because the food is bad and some of those students don't even get meals at home. Over all, I do believe Velva is one of the best schools out there because of the teachers willingness to help students.
