Upper School (Grades 6-12)

Miami Valley Christian Academy focuses on five pillars of student experience: Discipleship, Academics, Service, Life Skills, and Extracurriculars. We strive for excellence across the domains, seeking to provide student experiences that equip our learners to make a difference in the world.

Discipleship
Upper School students participate daily in Bible/Discipleship courses. As part of our Bible courses, students discuss, pray, and engage with Scripture. Weekly chapel and worship services, as well as Biblical integration throughout the curriculum, help us keep a primary focus on Discipleship.

Academics
In addition to core classes, MVCA offers a variety of electives to help students grow in areas they are passionate about. We offer Traditional, Honors, Advanced Placement (AP), and College Credit Plus (CCP) courses while providing access to our Student Support Services program for learners who need additional assistance mastering the skills and benchmarks established in our curriculum.

Service
All Upper School students are required to complete service hours each quarter. Our students engage in both direct and indirect service experiences. As an Academy, we offer opportunities throughout the year for students to serve, both during and outside of school hours. 

Life Skills
Miami Valley Christian Academy believes in connecting students with “real life” experiences and helping students acquire skills that will lead to their success beyond our walls. Students are not only trained to demonstrate skills such as respect and professionalism, but they are also given opportunity to engage in hands-on, real-life experiences, including travel opportunities and partnerships with local professionals.

Extracurriculars
From athletics to fine arts to entrepreneurship and more, students at MVCA can be part of programming that rounds out the student experience. The ever-growing list of opportunities at MVCA means that students not only experience excellence in courses and activities during the school day but also through activities such as sports, theatre, and much more as part of our extracurricular offerings.
