The best part about going to school at PVA is that I have gotten out of my shell and that I have meet people who are also passionate about their art One thing that hasn't been a good experience for me is that not every student has a mature mindset and it starts to disrupt my studies at times.

HSPVA allowed for my child to flourish not only in her art area, but as a human being. The lessons learned and relationships created at this school will last her a life time. Octopus is the best school mascot tehehehe
