About the High School

An immersive, comprehensive high school for exceptionally able young scholars.

The Virginia STEAM Academy boarding high school will serve as a publicly-accessible, internationally-benchmarked, comprehensive, and immersive academy for exceptionally able and interested students drawn from across the Commonwealth of Virginia. Any rising 9^th or 10^th grade Virginia student who meets the criteria may apply, regardless of a family’s income or place of residence in Virginia. There is no tuition fee to attend the Virginia STEAM Academy.

Each year, the Academy will accept a combined 9^th/10^th grade class.

After careful review, the Virginia STEAM Academy Board of Directors has decided to open the boarding high school when the funding, site and related renovation schedule are confirmed.
