Valley Academy

Valley Academy is an active public school district located at 59 John Lewis Road in Fishersville, Virginia. Situated in a rural fringe setting within the broader Staunton-Stuarts Draft metropolitan area, this open, non-charter district operates a single educational facility designed to serve a unique regional role. Rather than offering traditional grade-level instruction from pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade, Valley Academy functions as a specialized educational center focused on vocational and special education programs. This specialized design allows the district to provide targeted learning environments, practical technical training, and tailored support services designed to meet diverse student needs across the region.

The district maintains a focused operational structure supported by a dedicated team of 16.5 full-time equivalent (FTE) staff members. Instructional delivery is spearheaded by 8.5 FTE certified teachers and 1 FTE instructional aide, complemented by 7 FTE support staff members who assist with administrative, student support, and facility operations. This low student-to-staff environment ensures that learners enrolled in the academy's vocational and special education pathways receive individualized guidance and comprehensive care. Families, researchers, and community members looking to learn more about the district's specialized programming can contact the main office at (540) 886-0573 or visit their website at http://waynesboro.k12.va.us.
