It's official! DVA has maintained full accreditation with Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) for the next 6-year term. DVA will be required to submit a mid-term progress report, but no interim visits from a WASC Visiting Committee are required. 

Principal Craig Hill credits:

  • DVA's powerful faculty

  • DVA's stable and very caring staff

  • DVA's student body, who have created their own family-like school environment conducive to education

  • DVUSD's prudent and hard-working superintendent

  • DVUSD's  wise and caring School Board
