Parents

  • The education our children receive at CVC both academically and spiritually is top notch. Although the facilities and campus are great, the best part of the school is the teaching and administration staff. You can see the love they have for their jobs and our children every day.

    Julie Kalafut Parent
  • I feel a part of a whole new family, and it's an awesome feeling! This is the place for your kids!!

    Maggie Medina De Gutierrez Parent
  • My son loved attending CVC and I knew he was in a safe environment where he would be challenged academically and spiritually. No person or institution is perfect but this one was as good as they get!

    Tiffany Smith-Edmonds Parent
  • CVC has high academic standards, is able to offer band, choir, P.E., Art, Bible, etc., and the staff is dedicated to upholding academic standards as well as teaching and encouraging their faith in the Lord.

    Mandy Brown Parent
  • My daughter comes home telling me what she educationally learned and what she Biblically learned...she wakes up looking forward to going to school everyday!

    Brittany Dominguez-Nahial Parent
  • Our children enjoy the academics and Bible. We have always been involved at church, but they enjoy learning more about God, the Bible, and how to use what they have learned on a daily basis. I could not be happier with our choice of school. I look forward to watching our children grow and succeed in everything they do at CVC.

  • We love our teachers and the love they clearly have for what they do and for the children. We are thankful that our children can pray and they are surrounded by loving people....just being in a community like CVC we know that if we ever needed it, we would be surrounded by prayer and love.

  • There is nowhere else I would want my daughter to be. If she’s going to be at school and away from home for many hours a day, I want her with role-models and teachers that will support her walk with Christ and prepare her academically for the future.

  • I appreciated being challenged at CVC academically as well as in my faith. I loved knowing everyone (faculty and students) on a first name basis and I enjoy returning to CVC and seeing past faculty/classmates continue to support CVC. What an awesome community we have!

  • My time at CVC helped to establish a foundation of learning, but also one of calling. Teachers dedicated themselves to educating the whole person and to equipping students to live a life that explores and elevates all that is important and eternal.
