VCA – A Place Where Miracles Happen
Nurturing Growth, Inspiring Brilliance
At VCA, we believe every student has unlimited potential and capacity to learn and grow. We celebrate our students’ individuality and unique strengths, talents, skill sets, character and background. Our classroom strategies, curriculum and course selection all provide the differentiation, scaffolding and choices needed for each student to succeed. Our priority is engaged students and engaged families to support them in their learning journey.
We emphasize STEAM education (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) in both our college-bound and our career and skilled trades tracking. We invest in heaviy in reading and writing, knowing that those two skills are fundamental for success across disciplines. Strong foundations build strong structures — so we work hard to instill fundamentals and then build critical and abstract thinking on top of them.
