Vestavia Hills High School

Founded in 1970, Vestavia Hills High School is a school with a tradition of excellence. Academics, athletics, and service are the forums through which students and teachers have learned together to grow together over the past 40+ years. Through those years, new students enter the school and challenge themselves to meet and surpass standards set by those classes before them. Vestavia Hills High School claims state championships annually in both athletic and academic competitions. Seniors earn millions of dollars in scholarship money. Its students raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for charities.

These quantifiable examples of excellence pale in comparison though to the more qualitative evidence of excellence among the people who walk the halls of the high school. These examples of excellence include building and strengthening relationships, persevering through tough times, and giving both time and resources. Stories of both defeat and victory, of natural talent and hard work, and of independence and teamwork could fill volumes. Some of the greatest stories are those of students who were not the smartest, the most talented, or the most athletic. They are stories of excellence nonetheless. 

To truly know Vestavia Hills High School, you must know the people of Vestavia Hills High School. Only then will a true understanding of the school's tradition of excellence be known...one student's story at a time.

Each year, our school surveys our parents and students, and uses data from these surveys to plan for continuous improvement.
