I like CollegeforMe91’s advice re. the guidance counselor.

Crazyadad, don’t assume that the highest ranked students will automatically get into UVa. Several years after I graduated, my high school had 2 valedictorians who both applied to UVa and didn’t get in while lower ranked students did. Have your daughter convey how much she wants to go to UVa through her essays and recommendations.
