I graduated from Valley Park High School in the eighties and decided to move from North County (Ferguson/Florissant school district) to Valley Park because this was the only school district I trusted with my son’s education. I have no regrets! All schools on one campus with small classroom teacher/student ratio, everyone knew everyone on campus. My son started at Valley Park in the 6 grade with teachers who cared about his education and students who were academically focused. He graduated this past May with lifelong friends and now attends college.

The teachers are all incredibly qualified and excell at their ability to communicate with the students. Also the students all grow together as they know remotely everyone that walks down the hallways.

I graduated from the high school, and all the teachers were always amazing and helpful!

I can say as a student at Valley Park, the teachers are ok but the school offers barely any sports and the classes are so large that you don't t really get work done and you don't get proper help like most people think you do. We also need up to date electronics the textbooks are falling apart.

Great TINY school choice in the St. Louis suburbs, where the high schools are huge. Kids don't get away with anything... They are on top of it. Having said that, there are some limitations. No football program and the concert band is small. (No marching.) Also, these kids might have a bit of a shock when they get to college and the teachers aren't hounding them about missing homework or late papers! My son put it this way, "Valley Park is so small we're like family. And you can't be mad at family too long, because you see them every day. We just all get along."
