About Our School
Central Valley Christian School currently has over 900 students in grades k – 12 and over 125 in the preschool.  The school is parent run with four Reformed doctrinal churches providing the 13 member school board.  The student body represents over 80 local church bodies.  It is a school designed to assist in the education of the children of Christian parents and believes heavily in the concept of home, church, and school.

The board and staff are committed to our mission statement of

                Cultivating responsible Christian Adults

                                Valuing academic excellence

                                Connecting Biblical truth with everyday living

                                Shaping Christ like character

We are enthusiastically devoted to Reformed Christian education.  The school realizes that to prepare a child only for the working world would be a failure. Central Valley Christian School tries to prepare a child to be ready for eternity by having an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ and realizing that Christians are to be in the world but not of the world. (Mark 16:15; John 15:19, 17:14-18; Romans 12:2).

Central Valley Christian School is a part of CSI (Christian Schools International) and is fully accredited by the W.A.S.C. (Western Association of Schools and Colleges). The school operates a full sports program and hosts many various extra curricular opportunities.

History

The school had its beginning in 1944 when a group of people dedicated to Christian education formed the Central Valley Christian School Society and started Hanford Christian School.  The combination of widening boundaries and continued growth motivated the Society to start a second elementary campus in Visalia in 1979.  The school started in the buildings of the First Christian Reformed Church of Visalia and was able to stay in that facility for the next several years.  Again motivated by growth the Society purchased 25 acres of land from the city of Visalia and started the new school with the addition of a high school in 1982.  The first graduating class was in 1986.  The Hanford and Central Valley Christian campuses remained under the same school board and superintendent until 1994 when by a mutual and friendly decision it was decided to break away and become two separate schools.
