Our grandson has attended MVCA 4K, 5K and 1st grade. We love the school and the staff. They have high standards in their desires for children to learn and to feel loved. Our child feels pride of the work he achieves and he is in a good Christian environment. We feel he is safe there and his achievements in life can be unlimited because of the education he receives as he is taught how it applies to personal growth and goals in everyday life. All of the teachers and staff are wonderful, loving, caring people that want our child to have the very best opportunities ahead.

My kid has been in school at MVCA for 7 years and we all love it. As parents, we feel that a christian-based learning and backgroud is important in our child's upbringing. The quality of education @ MVCA is superior and the curriculum is superb. The faculty is very caring, attentive, helpful, courteous, polite and considerate. Honestly, we wish the academy had higher grades so we could continue to send our child there. Overall, we have been very blessed and pleased to be apart of the MVCA family.
