Welcome to Rift Valley Academy
We educate and disciple students toward their potential in Christ, thus enabling families to serve across the African continent.
School Summary
RVA is a Christian boarding school in central Kenya with over a hundred years of rich history. We serve about 500 students representing 30 nationalities. Many come from a range of churches and sending organizations. We also accommodate a small number of Kenyan national students and expatriate students.
Our role is dyadic: supporting current mission work while investing in the next generation of leaders and gospel-bearers. As a branch of Africa Inland Mission, we exist to see Christ-centered churches established and thriving among all of Africa’s peoples.

Staffing
“I feel like there’s no better place to raise our kids. The character and quality of the people that make up this close-knit community, the simpler way of life, the greater mission, and the overlap of our family life and ministry is a unique and powerful combination.”
–Jill Wills, RVA staff member
