School Reviews

Both my children went through the high school. The renovation was very much needed and the roof no longer leaks. The renovation was very limited and many of the classrooms are still subpar particularly the science ones, but the essentials were taken care of during the renovation. The school does offer some AP classes and partners well with online learning through VLACS which expands the more limited course catalog. I have found the teachers to be dedicated to the students and the administration involved.

The facilities are 51 years old and the Enfielders want to rip down the school because the roof leaks. Unfortunately, many people chose to live here for the lower costs. Now, they want to spend money like Hanover but the rest of the communities in the district are very poor. I would recommend not moving here until Enfield leaves the school district.
