Blue Valley is an amazing school district, throughout my 9 years of attending a Blue Valley school this has been proven to me time and time again. The resources and opportunities that comes from this school district are something any parent would want their kid. However, the only thing I noticed ,is that there should be MORE education on diversity, throughout more recent years Johnson County as a whole has become more diverse, Blue Valley should do more to incorporate as much culture as possible for people of all backgrounds to feel more welcomed!

Fantastic school district! BVNW prepared me for college tremendously, I felt very prepared and comfortable with the home work load in college. All of the teachers at BVNW were always super helpful and knew the material very well.
Blue Valley has been amazing! I have had a great time joining all the different clubs that they offer, and enrolling in challenging AP courses. The different AP courses that we have is great because there are multiple in every subject, so if you excel in one subject, then you can take multiple AP courses. The diversity in the school is terrific and everyone is kind to one another. We set goals for our school and the students and staff work to make that happen. No bullying is one of our main goals, and I have seen this problem be resolved. The staff is very inviting, and you always feel comfortable asking them for additional help, or needing to talk to them about a personal problem. Overall my during the four years I have spent at Blue Valley, I have never considered transferring to another school. This is because I believe that Blue Valley has everything that anyone could want.
