Greetings, and welcome
to the Central Valley
Christian Middle School. The
middle school at CVC is comprised of grades 7 and 8. There are three
sections for each grade and class sizes generally range from 20 – 25.
Our curriculum consists of the usual core courses (English, Science,
Mathematics, Social Studies, Bible) as well as other enrichment and
exploratory classes (Band, Choir, Art, Media, Computers, Physical
Education). In addition to a very strong academic program, CVC MS also
offers students a wide range of athletic opportunities (flag football,
volleyball, soccer, basketball, softball, baseball, track). Middle
school life also includes regular chapel meetings and volunteering at
the local Visalia Rescue Mission.
The staff at CVC is a qualified group of professionals
who take seriously the craft of Christian teaching. They are
dedicated to working with middle school students and all the challenges
it involves. All teachers are credentialed and have earned degrees
in education.
CVCMS
recognizes that the middle school student is in the process of changing
from an elementary school child to becoming a young adult who will soon
enter high school. The challenging task of the middle school is to
understand and address the unique characteristics of early adolescents
and develop strategies that serve their needs. Our intent is to help
the student move away from dependence on the teacher to greater
independence and to take responsibility for themselves and ownership of
their actions and education.
The CVCMS community is committed to honoring Christ in all ways as we learn
and work together. We gladly welcome those who would share this with
us.
In His Service,
Douglas D. Vander Schaaf
Principal
