Death Valley High Academy is a tiny rural school for grades 7-12. Located in Shoshone, CA, DVA (as the school is often called) serves students who live in Death Valley National Park as well as students who live approximately 45 miles southeast of Shoshone, CA. The small school enrollment (often 12-15) allows teachers to form strong bonds with students and to make every attempt not only to educate them but also motivate students to reach their highest academic potential and to be confidently prepared for life as an adult in more largely populated areas, from higher education, to military enrollment, to trade schools, to the workforce.DVA maintains dual-credit course capability with Cerro Coso College as well as enrollment in online high school courses to supplement what can be offered in our tiny school environment.Bullying and violence are virtually nonexistent at Death Valley High Academy.
