Treating each student individually with respect and nourishing their creativity, Valley High School is a haven and non-threatening atmosphere for the learning of nontraditional students.The rules and policies of Valley High School are designed to build student responsibility by making students accountable for their work and actions, ultimately taking charge of their own learning.The focus at Valley High School is on learning and the success of students rather than on extracurricular activities.
Valley High School, as an alternative to regular high school, is not an easy way out, nor is it diluted learning, but rather it is a better way to educate nontraditional students.To the Valley High staff and faculty, fairness is not to provide the same for every student, but to provide equally for each student according to individual needs.In order to foster responsibility, self esteem, and learning, Valley High School works toward these objectives:
