My family is so happy that we found this school! Our three children are enrolled, and we intend on staying thru their graduation. The staff are friendly, and obviously love the children. The teachers have become those I count as friends, and I have recommended this school to many people because I know the staff's integrity and heart.
I attended VCA and I can honestly say that the staff did their very best to ensure that students were prepared to face the challenges they would face in life. I played basketball, baseball, and football (my senior year was the first season of the football program). Some may say that the school revolved around their sports programs, but coaches Gunter, Conroy, Borges, and Terry were as hard on us physically as well as educationally. If grades were slipping then players were not allowed to play. I am currently serving in the U.S. Navy and attending college at the Art Institute. The values and mental toughness I have gained form VCA have given me what I need to be a successful part of society. At VCA I acquired the tools to make myself a success.
Go figure that the majority of bad reviews are written by disgruntled students !!!?? As a parent I have had both of my children in VCA for 10 years now. It is a small, loving, spiritually sound school. My children have maintained the ethics and morals that we have instilled in them at home because the same standard is upheld at VCA. This school loves children and will work with families who are struggling to keep their children there. I don't know of any other school willing to do that. Sure, it may not be the most modern, top of the line facility but we have all seen where looking good on the outside and having top of the line everything has gotten say,,,,,Paris, Lindsay, Brittany....I would Much rather have my kids being taught how to be honorable, loving, giving and of good character. Not many schools can offer that, b
This is quite possibly the worst private school in the area. I attended Valley for my freshman and sophomore years and earned decent grades without doing much at all. The problem is that it is a school driven only by it's athletic program.
Very questionable curriculum. I would not recommend this school. Teachers are not educated, and they do not prepare their students for college. and I do not think my parents would recommend it either.
I am a student at VCA, and its a really good school, Pastor and Coach are very caring, and are always there for the students academically, spiritually, and personally. I play sports for VCA and the athletics there are great. They coach us to have a good sportsman like attitude, on and off the field/court. This school is a very good choice, it is smaller so the administration gives each student individual attention that they need to succeed.
My children have attended Valley Christian Academy for several years. My oldest daughter recently graduated from VCA. This schools administration has the highest of integrity I have ever seen. The elementary program is unmatched. The teachers have tremendous longevity and are spiritually driven. Pastor Gunter holds chapel every Friday. They stick to a Godly dress code and are always available for the students and families. Some say the campus needs. The administration works extremely hard to keep costs minimal for families, there financial intergrity unmatched. I would encourage anyone considering VCA to meet the administration and see for yourself.
I am a graduate of VCA, and it was the best school I ever went to. The administration cares so much about the students, and they truly have a heart for each and every one of us. Teachers are good, they help the students a lot. The athletics are amazing, they are comparable to public schools, although they dont have soccer, and the cheerleading isnt so great. If they got a new coaching staff for the cheer it would improve greatly. This school is similar to a family, everyone feels so welcome and loved. I would definitely recommend this school.
Very questionable curriculum. I would not recommend this school.
