Thank you to everyone who supported Phase I of the Secure the Future expansion campaign.

We now excitedly press forward with the Valley Christian Impact Fund, from 2022 through 2025.

“Whoever fears the Lord has a secure fortress, and for their children it will be a refuge.”

Proverbs 14:26

Secure the Future Campaign

Phase I Priorities

  • 14-ACRE LAND ACQUISITION FOR FUTURE HOME OF ELEMENTARY AND JUNIOR HIGH
  • HIGH SCHOOL EXPANSION (TWO-STORY BUILDING)
  • TROJAN SPORTS PERFORMANCE CENTER
  • GALVESTON INTERSECTION (STOPLIGHT, DECELERATION LANE)
  • ADDITIONAL PARKING

Phase I Complete

Since opening its doors in 1982, Valley Christian has been providing the East Valley with a premier Christian education. VCS educated high schoolers for 36 years before opening a junior high in 2018 and an elementary school in 2019. The school now educates more than 1,000 students across grades K-12.

During Phase I (2019-2022), our community made gifts of time, talent, and treasure to accomplish a number of goals:

  • Expand our high school facilities with a two-story classroom building, growing our HS capacity from 440 to 600
  • Build a much-needed parking lot to support our growth
  • Acquire additional land to build an elementary and junior high campus
  • Construct a state-of-the-art weight room (the Trojan Sports Performance Center), which doubled in size and includes brand new equipment
  • Adding a deceleration lane and stoplight at the Galveston intersection, improving the safety for all of our students and families.

All the while, we purchased additional land in Tempe to launch and grow our elementary campus. Two unmet goals during Phase I have now transitioned to Phase II, the Valley Christian Impact Fund. These include expanding the men’s and women’s locker rooms, and constructing the long-awaited Valley Impact Center, which includes a well-equipped performing arts theatre.

Foundations Dinner

We were thrilled to welcome President George W. Bush to our Foundations Dinner in October 2019, an event in support of this campaign. President Bush talked about the value of faith-based organizations, as well as leadership, his family, his years in the White House, his faith and how it affected him as a leader, and more. The event also featured entertainment from Third Day’s Mac Powell and his new band, Mac Powell and the Family Reunion, as well as remarks from Grand Canyon University President Brian Mueller.
