I currently know visual Basic pretty well as that was my first language, I am still working on learning python fully, however I know it pretty well. I was wondering what language I should start to learn next as I have summer vacation coming up and am looking into going into computer science when I graduate my high school.
EDIT: I am currently working on Ruby and then will be doing ruby on rails for Web app development. If you have any more suggestions, leave them below.

This depends on what you would like to be able to program and whether you would like to pursue a career in computer science.
To improve your ability as a programmer, I would recommend learning some functional style programming to change the way you think, Lisp is a good place to start.
As for languages which are big in the industry, definitely get your head around Java, C, and C++.
If you would like to get into web development, look into HTML, PHP, CSS and SQL if you want to get into databases.

As stated above, this question depends heavily on what it is you're looking to pursue a career in I guess. However, it's not a matter of simply learning programming languages. You should spend some time studying algorithms, learning more about how computers manage memory, and there's more, but those two are the first that come to mind.
If you're looking to pursue web development, I would suggest learning javascript or python. Quite honestly I believe any serious web developer should have an understanding of javascript. Javascript is used on just about every webpage we visit, and it also has use outside of web development. Python has worked it's way into web development with it's many libraries like Djanga. Python is also a great scripting language, possibly the most popular one.
I would also like to add, I highly doubt you "know" visual basic." It takes many years to "know" a language, and even then it's hard to know everything about that language.
