7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe can’t say enough great things about Valle Crucis School. Our kids have been there for 6 years and don’t want it to end. The building is beautiful but most importantly the culture is focused on kindness, respect, and integrity! From the teachers, bus drivers, cafeteria staff, to the very top (ie Dr Smith the principal), the collective staff of VCS go above and beyond to encourage and inspire the kids. I highly highly recommend it!Parent Review7mo ago - Watauga High

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePoor educational continuity. Scheduling is a nightmare. Limited advanced classes and I'm really not sure if WHS can or tries to prep students for any kind of a challenging college experience.Parent Review2y ago
