Bybee Corner

This is an exemplary small town elementary school. School spirit is high, academics are strong, class sizes are relatively small for public school, teachers are passionate and the students are engaged. The annual school play is unparalleled! Local youth sports are excellent.

My daughter went to this school. The bullying was off the charts. The parents were fighting. The school was trying to fire the Director. There were teachers who were trying to set up the director to get him fired. One day we got to school and there were news reporters everywhere. My daughter was jumped by two boys. One held her down while the other punched her repeatedly. Parents tried to get together to help the school with bullying. The school threatened the parents, for fear of sharing on social media, that the truth of the school would get out, when the parents were just trying to help. We pulled our daughter out of this school. She still has friends here and they say the school is just as imbalanced as ever. Never once were her academics discussed. It was a lot of drama beginning at the executive level. If you truly care about your kids experience and education, I would highly recommend looking at different schools.

My children attended all 12 years at RVAA (PK-12 is offered) and found committed and Godly teachers, differentiation where needed, and guided community service options. Furthermore, with a smaller student body, leadership opportunities abounded which helped grow their overall confidence.
