We are rooted in a gospel-centered educational philosophy, and every subject is taught through the lens of God's truth and redemptive story. Students are encouraged to see their identity, purpose, and calling in light of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
This approach nurtures both academic excellence and spiritual formation, equipping students to live faithfully and serve others with humility and love.
Our teachers serve as mentors who focus on developing future leaders. This happens through small class sizes and engaging conversations, as well as a heart for discipling the next generation.
Students also have access to our Biblical Counselor and receive mental health and wellness programming throughout the year.
We offer a robust Dual-Enrollment program for qualified students beginning in 10th grade. Dual-Enrollment allows students to earn college credit for work done in High School. Students can earn between 18-24 credit hours of college courses.
Each student receives a Personalized Education Plan (PEP) to help maximize their unique gifts and talents. No two students are alike, and every child deserves a unique education.
With an average 10:1 teacher-to-student ratio, your child is always seen and supported.
Comprehensive college/career counseling program beginning in 6th grade. This includes a college road map to success, dedicated family meetings, and a yearly college fair.
All of this is designed to help students find the best fit for them personally, academically, and financially.
We are not just teaching students but preparing them for life.
We put a heavy emphasis on practical life skill development, so that students are ready for the real world.
Additionally, multiple elective courses are offered, allowing students to tailor their schedule to meet their academic interests.
Students may also join myriad clubs and affinity groups, giving each person a place to build community.
Students are equipped to grow as servant leaders through opportunities like leading chapel services, mentoring younger students, and organizing community outreach events. Leadership roles in student government, clubs, and athletic teams help students develop confidence, responsibility, and integrity.
Additionally, Senior year at OVCA culminates in a Capstone Leadership Project where they demonstrate thier leadership in a real-world project.
Serving others is the greatest leadership trait, according to Jesus. We offer community service learning to help students develop compassion, responsibility, and a heart for serving others.
By engaging in meaningful service projects, students connect their learning to real-world needs and grow in character, and demonstrate the truth of the gospel.
