School Notes Overview:

Our mission at VCA is to build a Godly foundation in our students through Christ-centered education in cooperation with the Christian home and church so that our students know, love, and obey Jesus Christ. Valley Christian Academy exists as an extension of the home and of the church to fulfill God's commands to raise children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and to teach His words diligently unto our children. Our foundation rests upon acknowledging Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and the Bible as the Word of God--the final authority in truth and practice. We strive to help each child grow spiritually, mentally, physically, and socially through the dedication of teachers, administrators, and staff who love the Lord and desire to serve Him through the educational process. We rely on parents to help us through their prayer, their cooperation, and their active involvement in the life of this school. Christian education involves the whole person, so it is desirable that all elements which bear on the education of a child can be consistent and properly reinforce one another. In view of this, if the child's Christian school education is to be as effective as possible, it must be supported by a Christian home and a Christian church. All three should work together in a complementary fashion. Therefore, it is necessary that all the parents support the philosophy and academic program of the school. ...
