Val Verde Unified School District
Grades K–125/10
23 schools Rating range: 29 / 10

Val Verde Unified School District is a solid 'Mixed/Transition' organization characterized by a significant performance gap between its innovative elementary programs and its underperforming middle and alternative high schools. While state data highlights critical academic needs in secondary education (with several schools rated 2/10), the district maintains a stable operational foundation through successful grant acquisition, modern facility upgrades, and a proactive approach to student mental health and STEAM integration. Positive teacher sentiment and a lack of significant board or financial scandals suggest a stable leadership environment, but the district is currently held back from a higher rating by the inconsistent academic floor across its various campuses.
