Admissions

At Vail Christian Academy intellectual rigor and deep faith are complementary. VCA’s learning program is grounded in Biblical truth that prepares the whole student for high school and beyond. We strive to empower students to discover their passions and develop their unique gifts and abilities while growing in their faith. Both help students successfully pursue our goal of preparing tomorrow's leaders to influence the world for Christ. 

"Your sons and daughters will be taught by the Lord, and great will be their peace." 

Isaiah 54:13
