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 Ville platte was the students and some of the teachers. I say that because the students really helped you get through the day with all the laughter and fun we had. I also say some of the teacher because the really cared and wanted to see use succeed. The part I would change would be junior year with covid because I didn't really have the resources I need to really help me.

I liked how the school offers dual enrollment for college and its free. The campus is diverse black, white, asian, etc. There is a eight foot fence around the whole entire school. There is many clubs such as FBLA, FFA, Band, FCS, etc.

I absolutely love my school. The teachers are amazing and all have college degrees. We are offered to take free college courses our senior year. Our teachers care about us and if we do well. VPHS has pushed me to become a better student.
