1/31/2012studentOverall this school is outstanding with the majority of faculty being genuinely concerned for the students , but throughout the entire high school career of a student, you will eventually begin to see that the emphasis is not toward bettering your child for the future, but rather bettering your child for the PSSA's. As a senior in this high school, I find that the majority of things tested in the SAT's and ACT's have NOT been taught in the high school. I am what is considered to be a great student in multiple Honors and College in the High School classes and I did not feel prepared for the material in these tests even with numerous study techniques and preparations. Unfortunately, these tests do not test on CVHS's best department's specialty. History has by far the most caring and helpful of all the departments. The teachers are very well-rounded and helped in subjects that they do not even specialize in. As a history-buff myself,I was extremely impressed with their knowledge. The bus driver's are treated roughly,and there are some that have been rude with the involvement of cursing,screaming,and just a lack of social skills. The board,despite community meetings,does not listen.
5/19/2011otherthe school was the bast school i have going to in my life and the peolpe there was nices to the students
6/14/2008studentit is a very nice school and lots of after school activites
5/6/2008studentI am in ninth grade and I love it.
4/12/2006parentAcademic courses programs are good. however, the school focus is on PSSA scores and not the success of the individual students. Availability of extracurricular activities exists but their block scheduling makes it difficult for students to become involved in more than one activity. There classes run for 90 minutes.
7/17/2005parentI just want to say i was a graduate of cv and have a daughter that is currently attending as a senior. This high school was great when i attended and i am still impressed til this day on the academic programs and extracurricular activities that cv offers.There is something for every child in this school. Every student from special needs to being an honor student is treated fairly with respect and care that every child deserves.My daughter is an honor student, is on the tennis team, and is doing an internship for teaching at the elementary school. She wants to graduate college and become an elementary teacher and this program offered in cv was a great start for her and to see if this was what she really wanted to do before she goes off to college.She is headed in the right direction in life because of CVHS.Thanks CV!!
