Without a doubt, we made the correct decision to send our children to KVA! We have three children that attend KVA and they are getting a high quality education and love the school. Our daughter graduates this year and has been accepted to the college of her choice, thanks to the level of education she received at KVA. Looking forward to years to come for the other two. Paul V. is an exceptional leader! All around great teachers and staff.

Our headmaster, Paul Villatico has done an incredible job with our school. We have 3 kids enrolled at Kerr Vance,and one of them will be graduating next month. In the 6 years that we have been at the school our children have enjoyed the sports, music and extracericular activities. The coaches are dedicated to the kids and my husband was so impressed that he decided to volunteer as an assistant coach. Our school has an emense amount of parental involvement, which shows that we Love our great school.

My daughter is enrolled in the Primary Center and is learning much more than she would if she was at another daycare center. She already has exposure to gym, music, spanish and library. I know that I am paying for her to learn and not just 'babysat'. She loves going to school. It's a wonderful atmosphere and the teachers are wonderful.

it is an academically focused school which also promotes the ability to be well rounded ( sports, clubs, activities, ) with a family type atmosphere and positive competetive foundatoin. It assures the students receive individualized attention to promote their strengths while building a solid foundation to move forward with those subjects which present more of a challenge. The academics are phenomenal and promote well rounded, educated students , prepared for their callege careers ahead. I have a son in 10th grade as well as a son in K-5. My son in K-5 is reading beautifully and LOVES school, loves teh environment , LOVES to go to school. Mr. V, Headmaster is a phenomenal leader and educator ! .

Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
