Teaching Approach

Updated 8mo ago

Virginia Academy’s educational philosophy is explicitly Christian and Bible-centered, viewing schooling as a partnership among the home, the school, and the church, with parents bearing ultimate responsibility for their child’s education. It emphasizes a genuinely Christian staff and curriculum that develops students spiritually, emotionally, physically, and intellectually, and teaches best by treating children as individuals in an environment of love, engagement, and order. The stated end goal is to launch intellectually sound and spiritually dynamic followers of Christ into the world. (virginia-academy.com)

Admissions

Updated 8mo ago

Virginia Academy accepts applications year-round, with families starting by submitting an inquiry and beginning an online application, then uploading supporting documents to their MyVAA checklist. (virginia-academy.com) Key dates listed are: Sept–Jan (inquiry/application), Sept–Dec (campus tour; grades 6–12 may shadow after an application is submitted), Oct–Jan (finalize application and upload documents), and a Jan 1 deadline to guarantee an admission decision by February; applications completed after that are reviewed as space allows, followed by rolling admissions Mar–Jun. (virginia-academy.com) Priority enrollment/decisions are tied to completing the application checklist by the Jan 1 deadline (noted as being prior to January 2026 for the 2026–2027 cycle), with priority decisions sent in February and deposits made then. (virginia-academy.com) The school notes its main entry points are Kindergarten, 6th, and 9th grade. (virginia-academy.com) If there are more qualified applicants than available openings, a limited number may be placed into an unranked “wait pool,” and if space later opens the admissions committee reconvenes to reconsider wait-pool candidates.
