(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Valhalla is in my opinion a terrible school. A few teachers are good but the majority do not care about the kids. I feel that many of the teachers are not quite sane and have no right to even be teaching. For example one teacher told my daughters class that she had tried to commit suicide. I do not feel this is an appropriate thing to be discussing with teenagers. These teachers need to be informed to keep their personal lives private. Many teachers and students are racist towards certain ethnic groups, and teachers have been known to give grades based on whether or not they like the child. Other teachers have been known to take bribes from the kids in order to raise grades. The school does nothing to discourage racism,... I am altogether completely disgusted with this school and will be looking for an alternative school for my son.
