ADMISSIONS PROCESS
STEP 1: Information
​
The information available on our website explains our educational and spiritual philosophy and objectives. Read these materials carefully to determine whether or not they express the goals you have for your child(ren).
STEP 2: Tour
​
​​All new families need to set up an appointment with the Head of School as a part of the enrollment process. Please click the 'Request Tour' link to fill out the form below to set up this appointment
Once you have determined whether we are of like-minds, please click on the "request a tour" button at the bottom of this page, complete the inquiry form and someone will contact you. During your tour, you will meet with the Head of School, learn more about Valley Christian School and have opportunities to ask further questions.
​
STEP 3: Application
​
Once you have toured the school, met with the Head of School, and it has been determined that VCS is a good fit, you may be invited to apply for admission. If invited to apply, you will receive an email with a link to apply online. Each family will complete and submit the online application with the appropriate application fee. A copy of your child's most recent report card, standardized test scores, as well as other outside the classroom testing should be submitted prior to the testing phase described in Step Four. A non-refundable fee of $50.00 for Preschool and $120.00 for K - 6 should be submitted with your application. This is a per student fee.
​
STEP 4: Testing
​
​Preschool students do not need to be tested. Students entering Kindergarten through sixth grade are tested to determine his/her appropriate grade placement. Traditionally and culturally, the chronological ages are 5 for admittance to Kindergarten and 6 for admittance to Grade 1. Applicants are placed according to the results of a developmental and/or academic screening for grade-level placement.
STEP 5: Enrollment
​​​
If you and Valley Christian School concur on the testing results and recommendations for student placement and the interview confirms that we agree in philosophy, we will notify you of your child’s acceptance into our program. You will receive a letter of invitation for continuous enrollment along with instructions for completing the online continuous enrollment process. Please note that a student’s enrollment into VCS is not complete until the enrollment form is submitted online along with the appropriate fees. The annual program fee is currently $200 for 2 Play & Learn and for our P3 class, $300 for PreK (ages 4-5), and $600 for K-6th grade, which covers the cost of special programs and events, technology and instructional materials. Childcare information for the Before School Program (BSP) and the After School Program (ASP) is requested during the enrollment process.
