Giving Back

Valwood School’s mission is to provide its students a challenging college preparatory experience and to develop in them strong character and a desire to contribute to society. The school accomplishes its mission with outstanding teachers, small classes, a safe and enthusiastic learning environment, attention to the individual student, and active parental support.

To provide top-notch professional development for our teachers, administers, and staff as well as supporting our programs and enhancing the classroom environment, we count on your generous support. With your help, we offer our best – each and every day – to our students.
