Welcome to the RVA Info Page!

What is The RVA?

The Rural Virtual Academy is a tuition-free, public school open to all school-aged children anywhere in the State of Wisconsin between grades PreK - 12 with the same accreditation and accountability as your local brick and mortar school. The difference is, we have the freedom to teach your children the way they learn best.

At Rural Virtual Academy (RVA), we believe that every child's education should be as unique as they are. They all can't fit in the same box and they shouldn't. We provide students with a strong academic foundation, teachers that both engage and inspire and specialty classes that your typical brick-and-mortar school can't provide. In addition to these educational offerings, we host hundreds of free in-person events across the state of Wisconsin for our students to socialize and connect, helping to build a sense of community and belonging. We have virtual clubs and activities at all grade levels for students to stay connected without leaving their homes. Our school motto is “relationships, values, and academics in that order, no apologies.” With 20 years of experience, we understand what it takes to provide a top-quality, well-rounded, virtual education.

We Put Your Child at the Center of Their Education

A New Approach

We all shuffled onto the yellow limo as children, our parents waved to us from the curb, hoping we would thrive, or at least not fail, in the one-size-fits-all system that was available. But now as parents, you have the ability to choose a fully customizable and flexible educational program centered around your child with the help of Rural Virtual Academy (RVA). We put you in the driver’s seat and give your child a curriculum based on their abilities and gifts. You won’t do it alone though. You will have the RVA and a host of dedicated educators and innovative online resources to help you along the way.

Flexibility for Family

RVA is a great fit for those who want to spend more quality time with their family. If the Grandparents come to visit in the fall, you have the flexibility to take a week off. That’s not to say you don’t have to work hard, but sometimes you can do extra work in advance so you can free up the time your family needs in the future.

If you sign up now, between February 3 and April 30, you can avoid the long waitlist and start in the fall!
