VHTPA is a California Distinguished School, with full accreditation under the Accrediting Commission for Schools, Western Association of Schools and Colleges, which certifies that "an institution meets or exceeds established standards and is achieving its own stated objectives". The academy received the National Blue Ribbon in 2008 and the California Gold Ribbon in 2015. U.S. News & World Report ranks VHTPA as #1 out of 181 high schools in LAUSD, #4 in the Los Angeles Metro Area, and #8 out of 1,675 high schools in California. The academy maintains a 100% graduation rate.
