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.

In my experience, the Velva High School staff are very wonderful. They provide us with the help we need and do their best to prepare us for the future. Unfortunately, there are a lot of students that don't get along with each other which makes school an overall negative environment.

Velva has molded me into becoming a well rounded citizen that has prepared me to live in the real world. The small community has empowered me to find my voice and advocate for myself in education. However, it is difficult to branch out and explore diverse cultures in such a small school. I am looking forward to my time after Velva High School and branching out and exploring richer and more engaging opportunities.

I did like how organize they are and the clubs are very good. I would like to see them change the lunch food because it's gross and the teachers that pick there favorites.
