How to Get Involved
For 20 years, parents, grandparents, alumni and friends have supported Vail Christian High School’s culture of philanthropy from giving to taking an active role in our school. A long-standing community of Saints with a shared passion for one purpose: to provide students with the best education possible. Our continued goal since 1998.
Gift of Time and Talent
Vail Christian High School is grateful for those who are able to volunteer on campus, on committees and on the field or court. From Booster Club to Theater parents, our families come together. No role is too big or too small.
Gift of Treasure
Like most independent schools, tuition income does not fully fund the true cost of educating each child at Vail Christian High School. Rather, it is supplemented by charitable gifts. Thanks to friends like you, Saints go further than they ever imagined.
Every act of service or financial gift expresses a commitment to Vail Christian High School’s long standing goal: providing the best education possible. By investing in VCHS, you can be sure your gift will make a lasting difference in the lives of our students.
All Saints Fund
At Vail Christian High School, the 2018-2019 “All Saints Fund” energizes all of us to nurture a common purpose and responsibility – to grow and enrich the school’s educational resources. Your All Saints Fund gift is part of that indispensable, community-wide investment in the education of each VCHS student. (Any 2018-2019 All Saints Fund gift should be fulfilled by June 30, 2019 – the end of our fiscal year.)
Like most independent schools, VCHS counts on voluntary support from parents and other members of the school community to bridge the gap between tuition revenue and annual operating expenses.
All Saints Fund gifts are unrestricted. That means VCHS can designate these gifts in flexible and diverse ways, enhancing excellence throughout all aspects of the school.
All Saints Fund gifts underwrite many facets and activities that support the journey of a VCHS student. Your support of the All Saints Fund also helps VCHS attract, develop and retain the premier faculty that is the heart of our school.
- Academics/STEM – VCHS offers 17 AP courses and is a Project Lead The Way school.
- Tuition Assistance – VCHS makes every effort to fulfill a level of tuition aid to qualifying families.
- Athletics – VCHS offers a competitive field of sports and holds a 7-time Dance Team state title.
- Fine Arts – Art, Theater and Choral Ensemble perform and create exceptional pieces all throughout the year.
- Faculty Professional Development – 61% of VCHS faculty members hold Master’s Degrees and the average teaching experience is 18 years.
