VCA is committed to Biblical Education Reform. VCA's quality staff utilizes Accelerated Christian Education's ( ACE ) individualized, mastery-based, high-tech curriculum. VCA is registered with the Indiana Dept. of Education, ACE ( with whom we have achieved "Quality Status" ), and the College Board. Through ACE's Dual Enrollment Program, STUDENTS CAN RECEIVE A NATIONALLY ACCREDITED DIPLOMA from Lighthouse Christian Academy ( Madison, Tennessee ), ACE's distance-learning program. The diploma is accredited by SACS ( Southern Association of Colleges and School ). See our Handbook for more information about our graduation policies. VCA is proof that education reform is possible without any government assistance and without charging astronomical fees. For less than $2, 000.00 per student, parents can give their children a Christ-centered education that will prepare them to serve God, in whatever way He sees fit, for time and eternity. Furthermore, the homeschool program is about $1, 000 per student. ( Compared to over $10, 000 public schools receive from the government. ) Our students take nationally standardized tests each year ( the Stanford Achievement Test-Tenth Edition ) which demonstrates they are achieving academically. However, the great advantage for parents is the fact their Christian worldview will be reinforced, not undermined! Furthermore, we are unapologetically committed to promoting the Christian principles of this nation's Founding Fathers that made America the greatest nation in the world. Our students benefit from a wide range of opportunities, both academically and socially. VCA students are able to participate in the vocational programs offered by the Kokomo Area Career Center. This is a premier educational program which enables high school students to get a jump start on a career in a wide variety of fields. Furthermore, we are grateful to the leaders of Kokomo Area School at Home ( kashnews.org ) for allowing our students to participate in their activities such as volleyball, soccer and basketball. Go, Eagles! Finally, our teenagers attend the Heartland Regional ACE Student Convention on the campus of Ball State University. They compete against other Christian schools using the ACE curriculum throughout Indiana and Ohio. Through these organizations and local churches, VCA students receive a well-rounded education which is second to none.
