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.

As a Symmes Valley student I can say I've had an exceptional time. Since Symmes Valley is a smaller school the teacher to student ratio is about 1:20 which mean a lot of one on one help. I have excelled in school do to this. Our food is free since we are a low income school. As for sports we have several conference championships. I have participated in baseball as well as golf. I was the golf captain. Overall I believe Symmes Valley doesn't get the recognition it deserves.

Some of the things I like about Symmes Valley High School is how everybody knows everybody. I know everybody's names, knew their parents, and siblings. One thing I would change about Symmes Valley High School is academics. I wish they would've pushed us harder and made us take harder classes, rather than taking the easy way out.
