You know your son’s potential and want to give him advanced leadership training & opportunities. At Valley Forge Military Academy, we foster leadership in middle school & high school boys (grades 7-12), preparing them to be future leaders.
Recognized as a college prep boarding school that produces men equipped to lead in whatever career they choose, our educational program includes:

• Leadership Development: Leadership is built into the structure of daily life at VFMA. The student body, called the Corps of Cadets, is a cadet-led system which follows a military structure, teaching students the delegation of authority and providing cadets with opportunities to lead their fellows. 
  
  
• College Prep: Valley Forge Military Academy is proud of our academic standards and program. We are a college preparatory boarding school, and we prepare all our students for succeeding in college and life as leaders, including Advanced Placement (AP) and Honors coursework. 96% of our graduates go to college or trade school after graduation.
  
  
• Dual-Enrollment for College Credit: the dual enrollment program introduces high school cadets to the rigors of college coursework early and allows them to graduate with both a diploma and a college transcript. This program is offered to qualified cadets at no additional charge.
  
  
• Small Class Sizes: Your son will not be lost in a sea of students. The student-teacher ratio is 1:14. We have small class sizes so that your child will receive individual assistance and build a bond with his teachers and coaches who model the leadership your son is learning. Faculty supervise and assist students during evening study periods as well.
  
  
• Character Development: At Valley Forge Military Academy, education moves beyond academics to developing the cadet as a whole person. Valley Forge Military Academy successfully and enthusiastically utilizes the military model, which stresses structure, teamwork, character, integrity, leadership, and discipline.
