Valley View School District is a public school district based in the southwest side of Jonesboro, Arkansas, United States. The Valley View School District provides early childhood, elementary and secondary education for more than 2,000 prekindergarten through grade 12 students at its two facilities within southwestern Jonesboro.

Valley View School District is accredited by the Arkansas Department of Education (ADE) and AdvancED.[2]

The school district attracted significant controversy in early 2021 when two elementary physical education teachers, Nancy Best and Cindi Talbot, participated in the 2021 storming of the United States Capitol. However, in public statements, Superintendent Bryan Russell vigorously defended the teachers.[3]
