Valley Stream South High School
Valley Stream South High School (VSSHS) is a combined public junior and senior high school located in South Valley Stream, New York, in southwest Nassau County on Long Island. The school was established in 1955.[4]
The high school is one of three high schools in the Valley Stream Central High School District as well as one of two combined junior-senior high schools which educate grades seventh through twelfth. Students who attend Valley Stream South High School are mainly graduates of the local South Valley Stream elementary schools, including William L. Buck Elementary School, Brooklyn Avenue Elementary School, Forest Road Elementary School, and Robert W. Carbonaro Elementary School which is approximately 600 feet to the junior-senior high school complex. Valley Stream South High School is known to the local population simply as "South".[citation needed]
Valley Stream North High School was built at the same time. Both schools were originally similar in architecture and were arch rivals in to sporting events. During the 2007–2008 school year, South's athletics division was changed to Division 3 due to the size of the student body. The school has three floors and was originally designed in the shape of a cube with a landscaped courtyard in the center.[citation needed]
As of the 2022-23 school year, the school had an enrollment of 1,224 students and 105.08 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 11.65:1. There were 431 students (35.2% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 26 (2.1% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[2]
The school's official colors are red and white. The school's mascot is the falcon.[citation needed]
