For the past 4 years, Fresta has become part of our family. We are so thankful to all the staff at Fresta (from admin to teachers, coaches, & everyone in between). They have been such a blessing to our family. We are grateful for all the prayers and extra hours in helping our kids with difficulties, whether in their studies or just everyday situations. It is so refreshing to have a safe place with staff that have the best intentions for not just our kids but the student body as a whole. It's not just an excellent educational school, but it's also one where we have seen our kids grow and mature into wonderful young adults. I 100% recommend Fresta to families that are looking for a school that will not only meet their academic goals but will also strengthen their faith in a healthy, balanced, safe, & Christ-centered way. We are truly blessed to have found Fresta Valley Christian School.

This is our first year at Fresta Valley Christian School, and we could not be happier that we chose to send our girls here. We love that the values we are instilling at home are being instilled in the children at school. The staff is so kind and caring. Students are greeted with a warm smile, encouraging teachers and a safe environment. It's not just a school body but a school family. Academically, they are beyond what public school is doing, from my conversations with other families. We highly recommend Fresta Valley to those in the community.

FVCS is a blessing from God. The best reflection of our experience at FVCS is that our son has enjoyed attending the school for the past seven years. The Teachers work to meet the needs of the students while maintaining expectations. The Teachers genuinely care about their students. Educating students may have its challenges, but the spirt of FVCS Teachers is best explained with Philippians 4:6-7 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6 FVCS mirrors our family life and shepherds students to become adults who reflect God. John Maxwell said, "Change is inevitable. Growth is optional." FVCS embraces the idea of adapting, improvising, and overcoming challenges as they arise.

My children love Fresta and are doing very well. They have knowledgeable and caring teachers who enjoy teaching. Fresta continues to provide a solid Christian foundation for my children, academically, spiritually, and socially. As a parent, I have been encouraged through the family-oriented atmosphere. It has also been wonderful to have open-communication with teachers and staff members. I highly recommend this school if you're looking for: Christian education, caring staff, educated teachers, and a great support system.
