If you are fortunate enough to get your kids into Vance, you will be so glad you did. It isn’t too big, all the teachers know all the kids. Time is made for each individual needs. This is truly a “throwback” school. A diamond in the rough, as I call it. Could not ask for more even at a private school.

"There aren't that many families close to us the neighborhood is run down. People let their mean dogs run lose so it makes it unsafe to go for walks. There are also no sidewalks making it unsafe to go for walks. "
