Stepping Into Life, Leadership, and Lasting Faith
High school at Valley Christian School is a season of sharpening – academically, spiritually, and personally. As students move through grades 9–12, they are challenged to grow in independence, take ownership of their learning, and step into leadership. With a biblical worldview at the core of every subject, students are equipped to think critically, lead with integrity, and pursue God’s calling for their lives.
Guiding students toward maturity, leadership, and a future built on faith.


How Does VCS High School Prepare Students for Their Future?
Valley Christian High School offers a rigorous academic program alongside deep spiritual formation. Students study core subjects like math, science, English, history, foreign language, and Bible, with options for honors, AP, dual credit, and trade-focused courses.
Beyond academics, students lead in chapel, serve in the community, and participate in athletics, arts, and student government. Through everything, they are developing the character and confidence needed for adulthood. Whether heading toward college, a career, or vocational training, every student is guided to discover their God-given purpose and graduate prepared to lead, serve, and thrive.
