This is my second year attending VCA (I am now in the 7th grade), and I am very pleased with it. The faculty is amazing and I don't have any problems with anything. Sometimes it does get hectic with communication between students and teachers, but its still a great school!

I attended Village Christian Academy for 5 years, from 6th grade to my junior year, and overall it was a great experience for me until I started having problems with the administration.

My Son is a Senior at Village, having attended all his high school years at Village.

Village is likely the best that Cumberland County has to offer. I have two high school students. Overall we are pleased with the atmosphere, safety and quality of the teachers.

There are often students wandering the halls during class periods. Recently there was an abrupt change in adminstration. Parents should have been notified of this change without a detailed explaination in writng the day after this event occured.

The teachers are very involved and caring. Without a doubt I feel my son (grade 7) was given a quality education. Having said that, we did have several frustrating times, most of it having to do with lack of communicaiton. One example: We recived a letter stating practice times for soccer. My son
