GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Apple Valley H.S. has some amazing programs, like welding, FFA, MAHST, etc. I'm glad I got to be a part of the academic pathway as well as the welding path.

I liked the school, it was pretty standard. A lot of shooter drills, some false alarms some not. It was a good school.

My expierence at Apple Valley High School so far has been great. I met many new people who have become great friends of mine and help me and guided me at school. When i enrolled I was anxious but as I met the teachers and students I started feeling comfortable. The teachers really do care for the students and are there for them in anything. The best part of Apple Valley are the events and the games. They really do get exciting and especially the food trucks. There really isn't anything bad about the school in my opinion. I would like to see more food trucks after school like La Michocana. Even though they do it I would like them to have more since they're delicious. Overall the school is amazing and provides great opportunities to new students and students already attending.

Even though AVHS is a public high school, the truly caring staff, very helpful counselors, excellent teachers, devoted sports coaches, spirited students and the approachable administration contribute to the warm "family feel" of an otherwise large establishment. The academic and extracurricular oppo...
