How can someone comment about this school if their children don't attend? I have two children there and I can attest the curriculum is VERY challenging. My girls are learning far ahead of their peers in other schools. I think LVA is a great option for our children!

The high school is not preparing students for college. Students and parents are given the impression that the curriculum is challenging. It is not.
