The school provides on-campus boarding. The Titchie elementary dorms use three to four family-style homes with dorm parents living with students; junior high dorms (four in total) have wings with bedrooms, bathrooms, a lounge, and a dorm kitchen; high school dorms (twelve in total) follow a college-style setup with living areas attached to a dorm parent apartment. All students eat in the school cafeteria, with Titchie students sharing a couple family-style meals weekly; laundry services clean clothing and bedding.
The cafeteria provides well-balanced, nourishing meals for boarding students (and for station families as needed). It serves breakfast, chai time, lunch, dinner, and special events, offering a hot entrée with sides, fresh fruits and vegetables, beverages, and desserts. No frozen meals or processed foods are served. The menus are created exclusively for RVA by the Foodservice Supervisor and team, and there is a full-time national kitchen staff.
The school is a branch of Africa Inland Mission.
