VIPHS Open Houses, Tours, & Info Sessions

Spread the word!

VIPHS holds info sessions for prospective families approximately every two weeks – check the calendar to find out the date and time of our next info session for prospective families.

During these info sessions, the Principal or other school representative gives a formal overview of the program, a brief tour of the campus if possible, and time for Q&A.  We still have space left, so, these presentations are suitable for both eighth-grade families and families of current high schoolers.

Once the school year starts, we don’t set specific times for daytime tours – families can just email info@viphs.org and arrange for a time that is most convenient for them!

At Valley International Preparatory High School (VIP), a free public charter high school authorized by LAUSD, we believe that “progressive” and “rigorous” are not mutually exclusive when it comes to education. The teachers, administrators and most students at VIP comprise a school community that started five years ago, producing national-level speech and debate championships (was named a 2018 Top 10 program in the nation), 2018 Los Angeles County Mock Trial team championship, “Get Lit” poetry team championships for two years’ running, and popular and unique contemporary music and theatre programs. Its past four graduating classes are now attending colleges such as; Columbia, Yale, Wellesley, Georgetown, UC Berkeley, Dartmouth, Brown, UCLA, University of Chicago, Bryn Mawr, and many more.

VIP’s mission is to prepare students for college through a combination of engaging yet challenging courses and learning experiences designed by a staff of talented and award-winning educators. Add to this mix small class sizes, AP offerings, advisory periods, many innovative electives, an extensive college counseling process that focuses on “right fit” for every student, and a school culture that fosters and values self-reflection, self-expression, and self-actualization… and you have VIP!
