My child feels safe and happy in this school. The teachers and staff are very hardworking and challenge her academically. When my child likes going to school and she is also making great academic progress, that says a lot!

"West Lincoln County, Great Schools, Farm Country with room to breath. We moved in Last June (Been a whole year now!) and we love it. Acres of land and good folk that know the difference between right and wrong not just the color of money. If you are looking for peace and quite Vale has that in spades. If you are looking for a great place to raise a family Vale has that too! If you are looking for nightlife and noise dont bother with Vale because it wont suit you. "

"I lived in the south Hickory- Vale area for the past 23 years. I enjoyed the changing seasons and lovely scenery. Only 5 minutes from Bakers Mt state park and 20 minutes from South Mountain state park. Excellent hiking and fishing."
