Equipping For Life

We are grounded in a classical tradition of education that equips our children to navigate a changing world in light of unchanging wisdom.

Loving Christ

Our first priority is to introduce your child to the life-giving love of Jesus Christ.  We believe a relationship with Christ is the framework for living well. Our staff strives to lead by example, living out that relationship for our students to see and experience.

Being A Light

Vail Christian Academy shines brightly through our Compassion projects, O2 outdoor education program, service outreach projects and Leadership crew.  The love of Jesus Christ is shown consistently through our leaders, staff, volunteers and students.
