Valley Torah High School is an Orthodox Jewish high school located in Valley Village, California. The school has two separate divisions (in different buildings and locations): a Boys Division, and a Girls Division. The current Rosh Yeshiva is Rabbi Avraham Stulberger.
Valley Torah is hashkafically aligned with the Chofetz Chaim school of thought, which is a subset of Litvishe Haredi Judaism rooted in the Musar movement of 19th-century Lithuanian Jewry. The high school is part of the Freelance League.

The Wolfpack have also won three national Jewish tournaments: Memphis Cooper, Glouberman, and the Red Sarachek Tournament at Yeshiva University. They are the only Jewish school to accomplish all three feats.
