Different on Purpose

Different in Philosophy

Our mission at EVCS is to educate and train students in truth and righteousness. By doing this, we support and strengthen the family and the local Bible believing church. We believe it is important not only to know how to make a living, but also to know how to live.

Different in Staff

Each faculty member is a born again Christian and has a sincere love for young people. Each teacher is not only professionally qualified for his area of responsibility, but is is also spiritually qualified. Our faculty will work with you to help your child reach his maximum spiritual and academic potential.

Different in Values

God's Word is truth. All academics are measured by the Word of God. God's Word and His moral nature are absolute. Absolutes, such as honesty, integrity, purity and modesty are aggressively taught. Our inspiring elementary and high school chapels help address the student's spiritual maturity.

Different in Academics and Curriculum

ABeka textbooks provide EVCS with an exceptionally strong academic program. Our elementary program tested according to the Stanford Achievement Test in the upper 10% in the nation among public schools. EVCS graduates are accepted at colleges and universities throughout the country. Grades 4-12 compete annually at Fine Arts competitions. High school incorporates Student Counsel, Honor Society, choir, vocal ensembles, and school yearbook.

Different in Discipline

The school's desire is to exalt Christ in every facet of our programs which includes academics, conduct, dress, attitude and all other aspects of behavior. A good educational environment demands firm, but loving Biblical discipline.

Different in Activities
