I thought that Spring Valley was a pretty average school on a nice campus until I transferred to a different school across town and saw a major difference. By comparison, SPVHS is filled with staff and teachers who wouldn't want to give a student the time of day to help reteach or guide students in making important desicions and are, overall, an undedicated school. I have never (as a student) got a speedy answer (or an answer at all) from administration through any other way than making a parent call the school and threaten to call the superintendant, but I thought that was normal... Changing schools was one of the best desicions I made in my High school career

It's an average school in a city of below average choices in schools. Not the best but not the worst. They are hampered by budget cuts and overcrowding. Not a lot of extra curicular activities or fun classes.

As an involved parent of a Senior, I have had and excellent experience with staff. Counselors have been helpful, and when I need to speak with teachers, they have always been helpful, and answer my emails quick!

I love Spring Valley High, and pretty disappointed that I will move to a different school. The environment here is wonderful, teachers, students and staff just great. I am proud to be a former Grizzly. Go SPVHS!

This school is amazing. Now that my child goes here she loves it. Not all the test scores are good of the percentage of the whole school.. yes.. but she works hard and shes finally reached her goals in her tests. Ive never seen her so happy at a school. The teachers attend to there students and less insidents.

This school is the best school I've been to. The teachers are amazing at what they do, none of them think we are inferior to them and treat us as equals, pushing us to do our best. And overall, the staff is very kind and the administration always supports us and our various clubs and after school activities.

Very unimpressed by this school, my child had problems with her classes and no counselor had even made the attempt to help, the teachers and administration make the children feel like convicts and are far from motivational, way to make a student feel good about themselves. The principal knows the food is bad but does nothing to change it, one of the worst administrations in the district.
