School Reviews
| 5 The quality of education at Victor HS is continuing to improve. The school focuses on data and instruction to improve the quality of education for all students. Students are exposed to a multitude of extra-curricular activities and classes (in a variety of subjects such as kick boxing and guitar instruction), as well as sports. The facilities are in need of an update, but the district is working to improve these areas. The school also strives to involve parents with regularly scheduled parent nights. - Posted by Teacher - cu_ab |
