Tennessee Virtual Academy (TNVA) is a tuition-free, online public school that serves students in grades K–12 across the state of Tennessee. Authorized by the Union County Board of Education, the school leverages the Stride K12 curriculum to provide a flexible, home-based learning environment. It is designed for students who thrive outside of a traditional brick-and-mortar classroom, including those who need personalized pacing, athletes, military families, or students who require a more supportive or focused academic setting.
The school combines rigorous state-aligned coursework with the guidance of Tennessee-certified teachers who provide instruction and support through virtual platforms. While the primary learning takes place at home, TNVA maintains an administrative office in Maynardville, Tennessee, and emphasizes a partnership between the school and "Learning Coaches" (typically parents or guardians) to ensure student success. By utilizing a blend of synchronous live sessions and asynchronous independent work, TNVA aims to prepare students for college and career readiness while accommodating a variety of diverse educational needs.
