We are excited to share with you that Tualatin Valley Academy is expanding! During the last 100+ years of providing quality, Adventist education in the Hillsboro area, our program has been accredited at most up to 10th grade. After several years of careful planning and preparation, we received accreditation through 12th grade in October 2023. We are now expanding our high program to a full 4-year experience, offering 11th grade in fall 2024 and 12th grade in fall 2025. The class of 2026 will be TVA’s first 12th grade graduating class.

Tualatin Valley Academy is growing a high school program known for whole person wellness - physical, mental, spiritual, and academic. Our goal is to produce lifelong learners who are well prepared for success in college and/or their chosen career. The core curriculum offers above and beyond high school graduation and 4-year university entrance requirements.

With small class sizes, TVA is able to offer a range of experiences and leadership opportunities tailored to student interests, and our teachers can get to know and mentor students as individuals. A Christian campus surrounds your student with teachers and classmates that share their values. A campus close to home means that students can participate in all school activities and still be part of their home and church community in the evenings and on weekends.

Program Overview

The TVA Difference

At TVA we are family, and the way our High School program is designed reflects that. We strive to provide a safe space where students are known and cherished. Teachers, staff, and pastors help students develop leadership and character through mentorship. We affirm family time and maintain students’ active involvement in their local church family by being very intentional in the extracurricular offerings we provide, and our small class sizes encourage students to develop friendships that last a lifetime.

Tualatin Valley Academy puts extra effort into having a low student-teacher ratio. The advantages of this include more time to dialogue with students about content, more time to give feedback on performance, and more time to mentor in important skills that will translate into adaptability to whatever challenges may come. Having better access to teachers means more, however, than just better direct instructional time. It also means deeper relationships with instructors. TVA teachers are not only interested in student performance, but care about knowing students in a meaningful way.

Tualatin Valley Academy teachers believe in student empowerment and hands-on, applicable learning. Teachers at TVA seek to create action-oriented learning communities where students can try things that they've never done before. Students come up with their own projects and take a strong lead in executing those projects. Smaller class sizes mean the ability to go out into the world to learn and participate. These forays come with a plethora of benefits - experience, relationships and memories. Students have a voice in trips, in fundraising, and in defining their own identity as a student body.
