Located along the James River, Downtown Lynchburg offers an attractive blend of history and natural beauty. The historic downtown provides shops, restaurants, entertainment, historic sites, and parks in the ultimate live-work-play setting. Be sure to take a walking tour of Lynchburg's seven historic districts to appreciate the elegant Queen Anne and Federal style mansions. The Academy Center of the Arts, located on Main Street, was built in 1905 and plays host to jazz and opera concerts, performers, and competitions.
Visit the awe-inspiring Monument Terrace, learn more about the city at Lynchburg Museum, or spend the afternoon at Amazement Square. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the Blackwater Creek Bikeway (part of the James River Heritage Trail System) provides miles of trails leading past monuments, Percival's Island, a railroad tunnel, and a waterfall.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
