Originating from SY Academy, a Berkeley, California-based educational institution established in 1996. Vine International Academy is an independent, K-12 college preparatory school that educates children in all aspects of life. Our student-focused educational approach seeks to originate motivation and fulfillment from within the student rather than an external source. Furthermore, by creating a firm foundation in each and every student's spiritual and emotional growth, Vine International Academy develops a 'whole' student who is prepared to impact and lead God's kingdom.

Our mission is to prepare students for a life of purpose, personal fulfillment, and social responsibility by inspiring excellence in scholarship and personal character. 

Vine International Academy was established to practice and share the philosophy of edifying the individual to become a 'light' upon the world and to walk a Christian life of service.

VIA fulfills tis mission with its philosophy by helping students reach their personal goals and aspirations through highly customized/personalized educational programs and guidance counseling that are uniquely tailored for each and every student.
