A Brighter School Choice for Families in Central & Southeastern Virginia

Message from our Admissions Director Emily Pittman

Thank you for your interest in Tidewater Academy!  We take great pride in offering a brighter school choice for families in central and southeastern Virginia.  We understand that evaluating your educational options and selecting a school is a big decision!  I would love to talk with you in person about the educational experience we offer at Tidewater Academy.  We are conveniently located on Rt 460 between Petersburg and Suffolk, and offer bus transportation for our students.

We provide a caring and thorough educational foundation that emphasizes college preparatory academics, athletics, and the core values of family, community, and good citizenship.  In addition, we have a partnership with Brightpoint Community College, that provides students the opportunity to receive career-technical education and training in a variety of disciplines. Our students graduate from Tidewater Academy as well-rounded young adults with the dedication to succeed in college, at work, and in their communities.

Emily Pittman,

Admissions Director

Excelling Academically and Playing Sports

Our two sons absolutely love being students at Tidewater Academy.  They excel academically with small class sizes and individual attention from their teachers, and they enjoy playing sports at TA.  Our sons feel at home with their school family.
