I've been going to RMA my entire life, and I couldn't recommend it more. The teachers want to be there, the administration is fantastic, and the sports are great. A great school all round.

My daughter started RMA in the 6th grade. I wish we had started her educate there sooner as it was by far the best experience she could have had for middle/high school. The students were so welcoming & accepting. There's truly nothing bad I can say about her experience at RMA. She graduated in 2019 and starts college in just a few days. I feel she is prepared academically & emotionally. I would highly recommend RMA.

Rocky Mount Academy is a great diverse school. The teachers are incredible and give one on one help with students. Class size is small. There is a wide variety of extra curricular activities including sport, drama, clubs, etc. The school promotes community involvement. Great place to send a kid to school.

Deciding to switch schools to Rocky Mount Academy was the worst decision my family and i've have ever made! The reason I switched school was because the crime and bullying in public schools was getting out of control, you still have bullying at RMA and absolutely nothing is being done about it. Many...
