ARVA has integrated support teams of school leaders, teachers,
academic coaches and counselors that offer unique learning
opportunities through personalized education and strong community

academic foundation with hands-on learning experiences. The school

connected in a digital learning environment. In 2023, ARVA opened
its first brick-and-mortar Education Hub in downtown Little Rock
and serves as Stride K12’s first in the nation.
“Our schools have proven to be an excellent option for students
and families,” said ARVA Head of School Amy Johnson. “We offer
tailor-made courses designed to prepare our students for success
while providing them the opportunity to learn at their own
pace.”
