Our goal is to provide a quality Christ-centered education to produce lifelong servant leaders for Christ! We believe that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. That no one gets to the Father except through Jesus. We believe that the Bible is God's true word and therefore it is imperative that the Bible is a central part of education throughout life. We are a non-denominational school and are not affiliated or supported by one church. We are a community centered private Christian school that exists to serve Christ and our community.

School Reviews

I love MVCA. Two of my children attend, one in 5th grade and one in 8th grade. They are receiving an excellent education that allows for their differences and unique abilities. The teachers and administrators are caring, patient, loving and truly care about the whole person, not just the academics. I would recommend the school to anyone looking for a loving, family like environment where kids learn and grow together.
