​Vail Christian High School is committed to helping students grow academically, spiritually, and personally. Our mission is to equip the mind, body, and spirit of every student for lives of purpose, service, and leadership. Whether in the classroom, on the stage, on the athletic field, or in service to others, we believe every student has God-given gifts waiting to be discovered and developed.
 

Our commitment to excellence has earned VCHS recognition as the #1 Private Christian High School in Colorado, with graduates attending outstanding colleges and universities, including recent Ivy League acceptances. Yet families are often surprised to discover that what they value most isn't a ranking or a college acceptance, it is the community.

Parents quickly discover that VCHS is more than the school their child attends, it is a community they belong to. Through intentional traditions, meaningful relationships, and a shared commitment to Christ, students are known, encouraged, challenged, and loved.

Thank you for considering Vail Christian High School. We recognize the trust that comes with choosing a school, and we would be honored to partner with your family during these important years in your child's life.

Dan Mysnyk
Head of School

​High school is about so much more than preparing students for college. It is a season that shapes who the student will become.
