Victory Christian School was founded in 1981 as a church-sponsored non-denominational, co-educational school. Victory’s current enrollment is 183 students in grades kindergarten through twelfth (fifty-two students in grades nine through twelve). Victory exists for the purpose of helping Christian families train their students to be servants for the Lord. The school is funded through support of the sponsoring church, tuition, fees, and gifts from the school’s benefactors and supporters. Most students come from within a twenty-five mile radius of the school. The school moved into a new facility in 1994 that consists of twelve new classrooms including a full science laboratory, computer laboratory, and secondary classes computer network. The school still uses part of the sponsoring church facilities for three classrooms, a music wing with three music classrooms, a library, a 300 seat auditorium, and a lunchroom.



Students come from a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds and evangelical Christian families creating an interdenominational school family. Victory has a selective admission process that seeks an average to above average, highly motivated, and diverse student body that has a desire for Christian training and for success in a college preparatory curriculum. Forty-four percent of the 2006-2007 student body comes from a minority background, and fifty-six percent are female. Approximately seven percent of the student body receives financial aid. Financial aid is based entirely on demonstrated financial need.



Twenty-nine percent of the school faculty has an advanced degree of at least a masters, and forty percent of the secondary faculty has an advanced degree.
