Armona Union Academy

Armona Union Academy is a WASC accredited private K-12 day school and the only Seventh-day Adventist high school in Kings County, California.
We are the oldest Protestant parochial school in our county.
And we have one of the lowest teacher-student ratios in the state (currently averaging 1:15 for our TK-8 elementary, and 1:7 in the high school).
We proudly promote the Seventh-day Adventist faith and lifestyle, but we also jealously guard the right of all to choose for themselves.
