◼︎ About the RVA
Redefining What School Can Be
Every day, our students prove that kids from all walks of life can thrive when education is flexible, friendly, and built for them.
It is the mission of the Rural Virtual Academy to:
• establish committed, long term, & trusting relationships with everyone in our school family and community;
• help instill & reinforce values which ensure personal success in every person we are connected to;
• provide the highest quality academic options & support available to all students, families, and districts for whom we have the privilege to serve.
Purposeful Learning, Built for Every Student
We don’t follow a rigid pace or a singular method. RVA students follow learning plans that align with their interests, strengths, and goals and progress toward mastery, not just seat time.
A Vibrant Community, Online and Beyond
We don’t just educate, we connect. With more than 200 free in-person events across the state, 45+ active student extracurriculars and clubs, RVA is a community that cares. Real friendships and belonging happen here.
If you're ready for a school experience that puts your child at the center, thrives on relationships, and balances rigor with flexibility, RVA is designed for you.
Built-In Flexibility + Real Structure
Our schedules adapt to family life and individual rhythms. Yet every student is guided through live instruction, real-time feedback, and thoughtful support ensuring access without sacrificing quality no matter the curriculum.
At RVA, we work with students who think in pictures. Who tap their pencils to focus. Who can dream up incredible stories but might get stuck on the spelling.
Not because they’re behind, but because they blaze their own path.
Traditional schools often expect a straight line. We plan for zigzags and our amazing teachers walk alongside students every step of the way.
That’s why we build flexible learning paths.
We slow down when needed and speed up when a student is ready and we look for real understanding not just the “right” answers.
